The Green Growth Knowledge Partnership (GGKP) is pleased to announce the global launch of the Green Forum at the Fifth session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA 5).
The Green Forum is an online community space for exchanging insights on emerging knowledge and learning related to the pursuit of a sustainable economic transition. The Forum includes open discussions on green recovery, natural capital, green industry and entrepreneurship, or groups focused on sustainable infrastructure, mineral resources governance, water security and more. Users can also create dedicated groups on specific themes, initiatives, projects, or communities of practice.
At the event, a high-level panel will discuss how the Green Forum can support the implementation of UNEA decisions and achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, including the role of global networks, knowledge exchange and collaboration in a green recovery from COVID-19; key barriers to strong collaboration on the 2030 Agenda; and how we can encourage a more collaborative future.
