During the meeting, talks will be given on how sustainable economic and social development can be achieved without depleting natural resources or degrading the environment, while promoting energy efficiency, biodiversity conservation and social equity.
The event will be an important opportunity to bring together relevant national stakeholders on issues such as energy, infrastructure, environmental protection, among others, in which CABEI professionals will moderate the discussions.
