Countries in Southeast Asia are committed to a net zero future, with 8 out of 10 ASEAN member states at the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow committing to net zero targets by 2050.
The Asian Development Bank's Southeast Asia Development Symposium (SEADS) 2023, "Imagining a Net Zero ASEAN" will bring together thought leaders, decision makers, and climate action advocates from government, industry, academia, and the development sector to discuss innovative solutions that can help countries focus on becoming net zero economies and rebound from the COVID-19 crisis.
SEADS 2023 will examine how the region can harness new green, innovative, and cost-effective approaches; adopt new technological solutions; accelerate the availability of finance; and deploy other effective measures to support decarbonization in a wide range of sectors while revitalizing economies.
SEADS 2023 will explore the following: deploying technology in climate mitigation and adaptation; building low-carbon and climate-resilient cities; shifting to clean energy; ensuring a climate-resilient and inclusive ASEAN; minimizing climate effects on health; ensuring the blue economy leads to net zero; mobilizing transition finance; reimagining ecotourism; and deploying the cloud to meet climate goals.
