Meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement and Agenda 2030 requires a green transition with vast mobilization of both public and private capital. Enhanced climate ambition and renewable energy investments are not only the future, but essential for the realization of a low-carbon society. This requires enhanced co-operation and partnerships across disciplines and innovative climate solutions that challenge the prevailing systems and the way we think about finance.
