Introduction to the event
To meet the 1.5°C targets of the Paris Agreement and those of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, a systemic shift away from carbon-intensive models is necessary. In this context, the Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT) has developed the "Assessment Guide on Transformational Change"to help understand the relationship between policies and actions and their expected or achieved transformational impact. A transformational change is one that is fundamental and sustained to a system that disrupts established carbon-intensive practices and contributes to a low-carbon society.
In order to increase the accessibility of the guidelines in Spanish-speaking countries, especially in the Latin American and Caribbean region, the guidelines have been translated into Spanish and this webinar is an opportunity to raise awareness of the benefits of applying the guidelines.
Objective of the event
- Raise awareness among stakeholders as to why the application of this guide is important.
Participants
- Current and potential users of the guides (particularly in those countries where the guides are not being used):
- Public sector: Ministries and sub-national governments
- Private Sector
- Civil Society
- Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs)
- Consultants working directly with governments
- Academia (especially those institutions that tend to work with governments)
