SUMMARY:COP31 side event: Trade\, de-risking investment and partnerships fo
 r green industrialization and adaptation at scale 
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:The event will explore policy and financing options that levera
 ge trade\, investment\, and de-risk investment in climate mitigation and a
 daptation. Identifying feasible solutions alongside private sector and par
 tners\, is critical for strengthening the trade\, investment\, green indus
 trialization\, and climate action links.   ​Trade and investment are
  key enablers of sustainable development. They support domestic and intern
 ational resource mobilization and improve the accessibility of developing 
 and least developed countries to climate-related goods\, services\, and te
 chnology. Together\, they have the capacity to accelerate green industrial
 ization and the implementation of climate plans.  ​However\, investme
 nt in adaptation\, including in sustainable infrastructure\, continues to 
 lag\, making green industrialization more challenging. In particular\, the
  lack of financing has left hard-to-abate sectors behind in green transfor
 mation. There is a pressing need to identify feasible solutions to unlock 
 financing for market development and adaptation. Furthermore\, the increas
 ing adoption of trade-related climate measures has the potential to affect
  the competitiveness of developing countries and their access to internati
 onal markets. This calls for policies that support inclusive economic tran
 sformation and sustainability.  ​The event will bring together policy
 makers\, investors\, SMEs\, other stakeholders\, and partners to showcase 
 solutions that strengthen market access and sustainable production\, integ
 rate environmental impact assessment into trade agreements\, mobilize inve
 stment in resilient infrastructure\, and deliver adaptation at scale.  
 The side event will be live on the COP31 digital platform (only registered
  conference participants will have access to it). Only duly registered co
 nference participants are permitted to access the conference venue.  &l
