The Center for American Progress, the Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation, Resources for the Future, and Australian National University are excited to host this official UNFCCC COP29 side event in Baku.

Representatives from the Global North and South will discuss the impact of trade and industrial policies, particularly carbon border adjustments, on efforts to decarbonize heavy industry, including steel and cement.

Please note: This event is taking place in person at the UNFCCC COP29, in Baku, Azerbaijan. The event is from 3:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. AZT.
