Evento de ISWA / IWA / OECD en el marco de la 22ª Conferencia de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Cambio Climático – COP22 , que se está celebrando en Marrakech (Marruecos) del 7 al 18 de noviembre de 2016.
Tendrá lugar el Jueves, 17 Noviembre, 11:30 – 13:00 Blue Zone: Mediterranean Room
La actividad tiene como título:
This side event will address current bottlenecks and opportunities for cities to deliver climate-resilient, low-carbon water and waste services in emerging economies. Both the water and waste sector provide attractive opportunities for cities to take action in reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions to help meet the UN Climate targets and other sustainable development goals.
Making the most of these opportunities, and of the synergies of the two sectors, requires a shift in policies, regulations, financing and planning approaches that fully embrace their positive contribution to low-carbon cities. The development of a project pipeline for investments will require creditworthy cities and service providers to make informed decisions about financing options, preparing bankable projects that deliver value and contribute towards emissions reductions and resiliency measures that enable the implementation of the Paris Agreement.
