Our first Annual Conference on Trade, Climate, and Sustainable Development aims to bring together around 60 leading experts from around the world to discuss, identify, and forge pathways for effective, inclusive international action and cooperation on trade, climate, and sustainable development.

The inaugural edition of the TCSD conference will focus on three cross-cutting themes: climate ambition, resilience, and justice.

The conference will bring together in person a regionally diverse range of senior experts from research centres, think tanks and academia, as well as stakeholder organizations, intergovernmental organizations, and government.

The conference will combine a number of public, live-cast panels with a series of thematic roundtables, workshops, debates, and brainstorming sessions. More details on the agenda will follow.

TESS will be reaching out to knowledge partners for a range of sessions and to support expert participation from developing countries.

Participation in the conference will be by invitation only, with a limit in general of one person per organization to ensure diversity of participation. While the event is designed to be an in-person gathering, there will be some opportunities for online participation, such as in the public panels and certain roundtables.

We invite you to register your interest in joining this event.
