POLICY DIALOGUE SERIES ON CLIMATE CHANGE

The Permanent Mission of Peru, host country of the COP XX, with the support of the Department of Sustainable Development for the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Observational Mission of France, is holding a series of four political dialogues in order to exchange experiences and ideas relating to the challenges presented by climate change and the need for the development of the Organization’s Member States.

The political dialogue series merges the agenda for climate change mitigation on the international scale and sustainable development on the regional scale through the exchange of information, science, best practices and policies. The series also promotes the efforts to find innovative sustainable energy sources and innovative sources of financing for these projects. The hope is that the series is helping to facilitate the creation of public and private alliances and is fomenting more public participation in the climate change arena. The series is also putting emphasis on the need for forest conservation, because it is a key player in climate change mitigation.
