It seeks to analyse the emerging role of collaborations between the two regions to combat climate change and recent policies in India in line with COP26.
The interactive discussion covers recent projects and collaborations which have contributed to a greener economy in India. It takes a practical approach to highlight how European businesses can create demand-driven value in India and the role of gender equality to create a long-term sustainability.
