SUMMARY:Paving the Way from Vulnerability to Prosperity: Climate Prosperity Plans Flagship Event
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text text_larger=”no”]\nCVF Pavilion (P106, area C), Blue Zone, Sharm El-Sheikh International Convention Center\nTuesday 8 November 2022, 9:30-10:45 am (EET)\nEvent Description:\nAs nations of the Climate Vulnerable Forum (CVF) and Vulnerable Group of 20 (V20) continuously strive to move from climate vulnerability to climate prosperity, access to climate financing remains a constant hurdle. This leads vulnerable countries in their full swing of development to build in further vulnerabilities with each investment rather than becoming more resilient. CVF and V20 countries are also missing out on opportunities for greater energy independence as well as access to green investment and export opportunities. The Climate Prosperity Plans Program seeks to respond to this challenge by designing actionable investment and implementation pathways toward climate prosperity. It presents an opportunity to unlock new avenues for economic cooperation and innovative financing centered around ambitious and climate-smart targets.\nClimate Prosperity Plans (CPPs) are national investment strategies that seek to maximize socio-economic outcomes for countries on the frontline of the climate emergency, through the deployment of maximized domestic renewable energy potential and climate-proofing of the economy. Based on a set of government-endorsed targets, the CPPs present a macroeconomic scenario for prosperity, showing how key socio-economic indicators could evolve to 2050 (provided financing for the Plan is fully unlocked). The CPPs also itemize programs and projects that will contribute to the realization of the set-out targets, as well as outline financing options for each project and program. The national legislative and regulatory framework is also analyzed and recommendations are made to facilitate the implementation of the Plan.\nIn 2021, Bangladesh launched the first CPP, named Mujib Climate Prosperity Plan after the Father of the Nation. At COP26, multiple member countries have expressed interest in developing their own CPP and Ghana, as the new CVF/V20 Chair, led the way for the program to expand to all interested members. At COP27, the time has come to take stock of progress and showcase the first results of the CPP program.\nEvent objectives:\nThis flagship event will serve the following objectives:\n\nShowcasing of Bangladesh’s Mujib Climate Prosperity Plan\nPresentation of progress on the development/preliminary launch of the Ghana, Maldives and Sri Lanka CPPs\nShowcase of the CPP program to all interested members, donor governments, CPP partners, philanthropies and other private investors\n\nEvent program and speakers (tentative)\nInaugurating keynote addresses (20 minutes)\n\nH.E.
