Jeannette Gurung will be at the COP28 in Dubai, UAE from 4th – 10th December 2023 and is looking forward to connecting with you in person. It will be an opportunity to exchange ideas about some of the trends and discussions surrounding climate action today.
Topics we’d be interested to discuss include:
1. Enhancing the quality and integrity of carbon credits and the role women’s empowerment can play in contributing to the overall integrity of climate finance projects.
2. Applying a gender-balanced approach to nature-based solutions (NBS) within project communities and project developer organizations for more equitable outcomes for women.
3. Strategic value add and risk mitigation for investors, carbon credit buyers and project developers: how the W+ Standard can help instill confidence and reduce fears of reputational risk.
4. Investment or prefinance of:
- Climate projects that can measure women’s empowerment and issue W+ credits alongside carbon, biodiversity and other types of credits.
- Carbon credit generating projects that can more effectively engage women to produce positive outcomes for them.
