1. The main theme:

The main theme of the 11th Congress is A pathway towards Carbon Neutrality in Asia

We invite leading academics of Asia and around the world to exchange ideas on how to effectively design decarbonization policies and support decarbonization technologies for carbon neutrality.

Furthermore, we will discuss policy cooperation and strategy in Asia to maximize the benefits and minimize the costs associated with carbon neutral climate policies. Successful policy design, supporting new technologies, and cooperation in Asia will not only lead to climate neutrality but will also strengthen future industries and businesses in the region. Interestingly, the thematic session “Universities for Carbon Neutrality” is devoted to share university’s experiences on implementing sustainability strategy and actions for carbon neutrality, and to form a network of universities for carbon neutrality.
