Leaders, experts, and activists gathered in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, for COP 27 amid growing urgency to tackle the climate crisis. The World Bank Group hosted a series of live events featuring top-level guests throughout the conference.
Watch back our first week panels, which included the Presidents of Mozambique and Tanzania on scaling up climate finance, a discussion on the importance of a ‘Methane Sprint’ to reduce emissions quickly, and an in-depth conversation on the importance of investing in people to advance climate goals. We also heard about the need to address climate and development issues together from representatives of South Africa, Morocco, Malawi, and Uganda on the urgent need for an energy transition.
On week 2, we focused on solutions to transition away from coal, the role of women and girls in effective climate action, the importance of climate-smart cities and agriculture, the blue economy, and much more.
