Germanwatch presents two studies suggesting a comprehensive, coherent and ambitious climate foreign policy for Germany: Paris Partnerships & PAREMIA-Partnerships for Ambitious Resilience and Mitigation Action
To achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement, far-reaching changes in the way we live and do business are necessary. The starting point of any serious policy to achieve the international climate goals must be ambitious climate policies at home. Beyond the domestic action, however, the responsibility for achieving the global climate goals has another dimension, namely to support the necessary socio-ecological transformation at the international level as well. In this webinar, we seek to examined the instrument of bilateral “Paris Partnerships” of Germany with countries of the Global South as an important component a realigned and more effective foreign climate policy. We seek to discuss ideas for potential partnerships of Germany with India and South Africa.
