1. Sustainable Finance for the Implementation of the Paris Climate Agreement - Dr. Phoebe Koundouri & Dimitris Dimitriadis
Significant financial resources are necessary for the achievement of climate targets across the globe. As the world recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an opportunity to transform our economies in a way that will trigger exponential change in strengthening social, economic, health, and environmental resilience. This session will discuss mobilizing financial resources for climate action as an economic recovery model to the pandemic.
2. Interdisciplinary Research for Sustainable Blue Growth - Mounir Ghribi, Prof. Maria Cristina Pedicchio, Prof. Phoebe Koundouri, & Prof. Nicolaos Theodossiou
This session will focus on interlinking governance, industry, and academia, which are often disconnected, to invigorate sustainable blue growth in maritime sectors. This includes maximizing the impact of investing in the improvement of existing skills (upskilling) and training in new skills (reskilling) throughout vocational and higher education to build strong blue skills partnerships.
