The strategy for decarbonisation and achieving net-zero, just transition, and adaptation and resilience.

This conference will be a timely opportunity to assess the next steps for climate change policy in Scotland, as The Scottish Government updates its Securing a green recovery on a path to net zero climate change plan.

 

With a keynote contribution from Professor Jim Skea, Chair of the Just Transition Commission, the seminar is timed to follow the expected publication of the Commission’s final report and the Scottish Government’s response - and takes place as Scotland prepares to host COP26 in Glasgow.

Areas for discussion include:

• the pathway to a net-zero Scotland
• priorities for climate change adaptation
• securing a just transition in Scotland
• COP26 and Scotland’s role
