We will not achieve the Paris Agreement goals without much bolder policy to accelerate the clean energy transition. Members of the Crux Alliance will be on the ground in Baku to highlight the top policies that can deliver net-zero, thriving, and socially just economies.
We hope to see you at the events listed below:
The Crux of Bolder NDCs: Independent Policy Design Assistance
Join us to learn how expert NGOs are enabling bolder climate policy to meet the Paris goals.
The Crux Alliance and ReNew2030 direct philanthropic investments to NGOs that help policymakers in the highest-emitting countries create clean energy policies that can realize the Paris targets. This panel brings together representatives from several of those organizations to share how they’re working to unlock more ambitious nationally determined contributions with unbiased, data-based, policy design assistance, and what countries must do to secure a safe and just climate future.
