Mexico Hosts Green Growth Conference From Jan. 12–13

The Green Growth Knowledge Platform (GGKP) will hold its inaugural conference, "Green Growth: Addressing the Knowledge Gaps," from January 12–13, 2012, in Mexico City, Mexico.

The conference aims to take stock of the current understanding of the economics of green growth; engage researchers and practitioners in an ongoing dialogue to increase understanding of how green growth approaches can be applied in the field; identify knowledge gaps and establish priorities for knowledge-building work and implementation; and launch follow-on efforts.

The conference will convene leading scholars and experienced practitioners to address a number of potential connections between economic growth and environmental resource management.
