Green hydrogen is being touted as a solution to help decarbonize industries and support countries as they become energy independent.

From December 1st to December 5th, join us for a series of events on climate change, live from the 28th United Nations Climate Change Conference. Our live sessions will address the critical intersection of climate and development.
This session will raise awareness of the need to accelerate climate action and finance in contexts affected by fragility, conflict and violence (FCV), highlighting a diverse range of World Bank, government and humanitarian activities. The event will showcase experiences from activities in Chad, Mozambique and Yemen that can be replicated and scaled up to promote resilience to compounding shocks and stresses. It will also draw attention to the importance of addressing knowledge and capacity constraints for scaling climate action and financing in fragile- and conflict- affected environments.
