WBG Series on Carbon Pricing and Markets: Co-benefits, Growth and Jobs

Today, there are two significant global concerns that have taken center stage. On one hand there is a clear dearth of provision of basic goods and services such as clean water, education etc. On the other hand, there is the looming threat of climate change. Historically these challenges have been dealt with separately. SDG 13 is about climate action – Carbon pricing could be the link that addresses these issues simultaneously. This is the first of a two-part webinar on Carbon Pricing and Development. The WBG explores how carbon pricing policies and measures can contribute to development in African economies.
