The transition to climate neutrality has become a central objective for EU policy-making. Targets and policies to achieve it have been advanced and accelerated over the past 4 years. Despite the crises faced since 2020, the EU is making the shift from incremental changes and refinements to the transformative policies needed for a net-zero emissions future – seeking to become more resilient and competitive through a successful transition.

This conference, taking place a month after the European elections, seeks to spotlight key issues in the EU’s transition to climate neutrality – and discuss options to address them, with a global context in mind. The conversations among policy-makers and other stakeholders will be kicked-off by content inputs from two EU-funded research projects, 4i-TRACTION and NDC ASPECTS, that have been working over the past three years to generate new insights on climate action challenges in Europe and globally.

Day 1: EU policy focus – investments, infrastructure, and international integration
Day 2: Global policy focus – hard to abate sectors, action by major emitters, international cooperation

In-person participants are invited to a light lunch before the start of the conference and a reception at the end of the first day, as well as lunch on the second day. Hybrid participation will also be available.
