8 July 2021
The fifteenth Policy Actions for COVID-19 Economic Recovery (PACER) Dialogue on “Green Policies for Post COVID-19 Economic Recovery” featured green growth opportunities and what is needed to scale up green finance to support governments in their recovery plans. Over 90 government officials from Southeast Asia and the People’s Republic of China participated in the Dialogue, sharing country experience on implementing green recovery strategies and finance.
The fifteenth PACER Dialogue aimed to:
  • promote a better understanding of existing green growth opportunities and, more importantly, key steps for an effective green recovery;
  • share knowledge, experience, and lessons on green finance strategies being implemented in the region;
  • provide a platform for policy makers, infrastructure planners, and green finance practitioners to share knowledge and experience, and collaboratively learn from each other.
