The International Conference on Green Economy and Sustainable Mountain Development is a collaborative initiative to bring together international, regional, and national experts and policy makers to discuss the relevance and scope of the green economy in the context of sustainable mountain development. It will seek strategies, approaches, and options for enhancing the role and prominence of mountain systems in regional and international debates and discussions.

The outputs will feed into the forthcoming Rio+20 conference.

Key Questions to be Addressed

  • What is a green economy?
  • Why are mountain systems important for the green economy?
  • What are the important costs, benefits, and challenges of the green economy in the mountain context?
  • What policies and institutional mechanisms are necessary to ensure that mountain systems contribute to the green economy, and that this contribution is recognised at Rio+20
