Key Green Transitions: How Systems Are Changing for People and Planet | 2021 WBG-IMF Spring Meetings

Everyone deserves a sustainable future. But solutions are most urgently needed in developing countries, where the investment gap is deepest and people are most disproportionately impacted by the climate crisis. Helping countries prepare for and invest in low-carbon, resilient development requires key transitions – in energy, transport, cities, and food systems – which are also key to an inclusive and effective recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. Join us as we discuss solutions sectors, highlight key priorities for COP26, and look at what it will take to shape a resilient recovery that works for people and planet. Join the discussion with top development speakers for the 2021 Virtual Spring Meetings!
