Women Leadership in Financing Asia’s Green Transition 

Asia is the fastest-growing region in the world, with significant contributions to global emissions, but it also holds immense potential for impactful actions. Collaborative efforts among Asian nations are vital, fostering partnerships to develop and share clean energy solutions, innovative carbon capture technologies, and sustainable practices. Moreover, investing in nature-based solutions, reforestation, and sustainable land-use practices can aid in carbon sequestration, further contributing to emissions mitigation efforts. 
 
GGGI experience shows that women can bring forth a multitude of innovative solutions to tackle green growth challenges by leveraging their unique perspectives, skills, and experiences. From leading the global diplomatic sphere for transformative multinational solutions to nature-based adaptation solutions and driving renewable energy entrepreneurship on the ground, women play pivotal roles in leading the world toward a greener future. 
 
This session aims to shed a spotlight on Asia’s ongoing work on green investments and sustainable finance, featuring women leaders in the field. It will explore the challenges to financing Asia’s green transition and solutions, including how to ensure investment is channeled toward projects that contribute most to decarbonization in Asia, while promoting gender equality and inclusive economic opportunity for the communities.
