To celebrate the re-launch of the Green Industry Platform, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung and the Green Growth Knowledge Partnership (GGKP) will hold an interactive walkthrough of the new Platform.
A joint initiative of the Global Green Growth Institute, the OECD, UN Environment, UNIDO, and the World Bank, under the auspices of the GGKP, the new Green Industry Platform builds on the current global momentum for addressing environmental challenges by providing a comprehensive and neutral sustainability knowledge platform for the business community. The platform is designed to encourage the discovery and application of cutting-edge knowledge to achieve real-world change, by advancing environmental sustainability and strengthening commercial competitiveness.
Together with the Green Industry Platform founders, join industry and policy experts at this informal lunch session to discover the new Platform. The event will be held at the KAS offices located at 220 East 42nd Street, Suite #3300.
