This event will take place at the Camile, which is First and only certified National Green Building Standard (NGBS) in the state of Maryland, the land of Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass. The NGBS Green certification is a third-party verification that a home, building, or land development is designed and built to achieve high performance in six key areas: Site Design, Resource Efficiency, Water Efficiency, Energy Efficiency, Indoor Environmental Quality, and Operation & Maintenance.
This Roundtable will provide an overview of the key elements of upcoming COP16, COP29 and the G20 negotiations and the existing framework for climate change, and the impact of these international events on subnational and territorial governments as well as underserved and coastal populations.
It will address the role of central governments, United Nation agencies, bilateral and multilateral financial institutions. Participants will be able to share actionable recommendations and hear from high level officials, experts, practitioners, advocates and negotiators about the challenges and opportunities for coastal populations in the region.
