SUMMARY:Carbon Markets Virtual Pavilion: Resilient Recovery through Fossil Fuel Subsidy Reform
DESCRIPTION:It is critical to align climate ambitions with socioeconomic priorities. Unlocking revenues dedicated to fossil fuel subsidies can stimulate the Paris Agreement-consistent COVID-19 recovery. This session highlights the role that energy price reform plays to increase ambition on climate change\, as well as build back better from the current pandemic.\n\nThe narrative will be grounded by the interventions of international experts\, including the group Friends of Fossil Fuel Subsidy Reform\, a group of non-G20 countries across the global south and north aiming to build political consensus on the importance of fossil fuel subsidy reform through international cooperation.\n\nA presentation will be given highlighting how the G20 is performing in meeting its fossil fuel subsidy reform efforts.  This ‘report card’ is intended to be launched only days before the event\, which means this side session will be one of the first opportunities to review the work and discuss how countries are making progress (or not) on their reform commitments.\n\nWe will also bring forward the findings of the Energy Policy Tracker. The Energy Policy Tracker database is updated on a weekly basis\, to provide the latest information about COVID-19 government policy responses from a climate and energy perspective. This analysis provides a detailed overview of the public finance flows as determined by recovery packages across the globe. Finally\, a business perspective will also be provided on how pandemic recovery can spur low-carbon investment if it is designed in the right way.\n\n \nAgenda and Speakers \n\n\n 	Welcoming Remarks and comments on the mission of the Friends of Fossil Fuel Subsidy Reform and national efforts on climate change\nAmbassador Stefan Estermann (Head of the Sectoral Foreign Policies Division\, State Secretariat\, FDFA Switzerland)\n 	Progress on commitments to reform subsidies – Presentation G20 Scorecard on Fossil Fuel Subsidy Reform\nAnna Geddes (Associate\, Energy Program\, IISD)\n 	A breakdown on green and brown pandemic recovery finance – The Energy Policy Tracker initiative\nAngela Picciariello (Senior Research Officer\, Climate and Sustainability program\, ODI)\n 	Business perspectives on the potential for fiscal reform to spur green investment\nVille Rimali (Director\, Growth & Development\, Wärtsilä)\n 	Moderated Q&A\nSpeakers\, moderated by Philip Gass (Lead\, Transitions\, Energy Program\, IISD)\n\nRegistration \nPlease register here! \nThis panel discussion is part of the ICAP-IETA Carbon Markets Virtual Pavilion and was co-organized by the International Institute for Sustainable Development\, Friends of Fossil Fuel Subsidy Reform\, and Switzerland Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. \nNote: This is a re-post of the original posted on the IISD Website.

SUMMARY:Reforming the ETS: What to make of revenues?
DESCRIPTION:President von der Leyen has set a new destination for EU climate policy: a 55 percent emissions reduction by 2030. The EU will now have to unleash a torrent of new climate and energy legislation to align its tools with the new target. The reform of the Emissions Trading System (ETS) will be a key element in the developing EU climate policy architecture. \nAt this event\, our experts will discuss what this future scheme could look like and how this tool can be repurposed to meet the ambitious climate goals of the European Union. \nLIVESTREAM \nThis event is online only. You will be able to access the live stream on this page\, Twitter\, Youtube\, and Facebook. \nRegistration is not obligatory to watch the live stream.

SUMMARY:GSI Webinar on Fisheries Subsidies: How can leaders use the trade system to deliver for people and planet?
DESCRIPTION:The International Institute for Sustainable Development\, the PEW Charitable Trusts and the International Chamber of Commerce are holding an online discussion on the topic of “Fisheries Subsidies: How can leaders use the trade system to deliver for people and planet?” as part of the WEF MC2020.\n\nSDG traget 14.6 sets a deadline of 2020 for governments to agree on rules for fisheries subsidies at the WTO\, rules which could help to restore the economic and environmental health of global fisheries and re-assert the value of a multilateral trading system. This high-level discussion will lay out the environmental imperative of a meaningful deal\, and will highlight the political challenges that leaders\, including the incoming Director-General of the WTO\, will need to overcome and why doing so would show that the trade system can deliver in an immediate\, tangible way\, for people and planet.\n\nTo register\, follow this link.

SUMMARY:Webinar on the PEFA Climate Framework
DESCRIPTION:The Coalition of Finance Ministers for Climate Action invites to a webinar on the Public Expenditure and Financial Accountability (PEFA) Climate Framework.\n\nThe webinar takes place on Thursday\, May 28th from 8:00 to 10:00 AM EST. This webinar is hosted by the PEFA Secretariat under the Helsinki Principle 4.\n\nThe PEFA Framework aims at assessing and reporting on the strengths and challenges of public financial management (PFM) using quantitative indicators to measure performance. Since its launch in 2005\, the PEFA framework has been used for 640 assessments in 152 countries and is widely recognized as the most commonly accepted PFM assessment tool.\n\nThe PEFA Secretariat has developed a set of supplementary indicators that builds on the PEFA framework to collect information on the extent to which a country’s public financial management system is climate responsive. The PEFA Climate Assessment informs on whether laws and regulations\, institutions\, systems\, procedures and processes contribute to the implementation of climate change activities throughout the budget cycle\, including the planning and design of budgetary policies considering climate\, the budget allocations needed to implement them\, the tracking of these allocations to ensure that policies are implemented as intended\, and the monitoring and evaluation of the efficiency and effectiveness of policies\, including their impacts on climate change.\n\nTo register\, please follow this link.

SUMMARY:Public finance conference 2020: better spending for public service delivery
DESCRIPTION:To achieve their national sustainable development goals\, governments will not only need to spend more\, but to spend better. While there is a common desire to see a greater impact from public spending\, there remain many unanswered questions about how best to get there.\n\nMany public financial management reforms aimed at improving public sector performance have often relied on top-down solutions led by finance ministries. But how do these solutions square with the complex realities of planning\, funding and delivering services through an array of organisations inside and outside of the public sector?\n\nThis two day conference organized by the Overseas Development Institute invites ministers\, civil servants and leading academics to reflect on how public financial management can deliver for public services\, and explores:\n\n 	how governments can support coherent systems for prioritisation and resource allocation\n 	how governments utilise the resources needed to deliver services when and where they are required\n 	how decisions taken by the centre of government affect the incentives of service providers.\n\nTo register for the event\, please contact contact Ruby Morgan-Bennett at r.morgan-bennett@odi.org.uk.

SUMMARY:Critical theme: Small-scale farming and the future of the European food system
DESCRIPTION:Globally\, small-scale farming is crucial for the sustainable production of food and being the main source of livelihoods for millions of people. In European food systems\, the important but under-appreciated role of small-scale farmers is under threat from external drivers. At the same time\, more people are concerned about the climate impacts of agriculture and demanding better\, rather than more\, food.\n\nThis critical theme event will explore the future of UK and European food systems through the lens of small-scale farming and will ask the following questions:\n\nAre small farms inefficient and uneconomic?\n\nOr do they offer a glimpse of what a more sustainable food system might look like?\n\nTo register for the even\, follow the link to IIED website.

SUMMARY:Raising NDC ambition to reach climate action goals: Fossil fuel subsidies\, energy pricing and swaps (IISD)
DESCRIPTION:This panel discussion focused on best practices on fossil fuel subsidy reform and pricing based on country experience. Experts presented results on GHG emission reduction from energy modelling research from over 20 countries and considered possible fiscal scenarios to achieve climate action goals. Particular attention was given to fossil fuel subsidy phase-out\, appropriate taxation level for fossil fuels\, and how savings from FFS reforms can be reinvested into renewables and energy efficiency for a low-carbon energy swap. Moreover\, countries and organizations working to create an enabling environment for a low-carbon energy economy to meet Paris Agreement goals had a chance to share their experience.

SUMMARY:WBG Series on Carbon Pricing and Markets: Co-benefits\, Growth and Jobs
DESCRIPTION: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. To view the archived video of the webinar\, follow the link.

SUMMARY:The EU’s Un-Common Agricultural Policy: measuring levels of agricultural support
DESCRIPTION:The EU’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) provides support to the agricultural sector that varies widely between its 27 member states. The OECD calculates the extent of this support at the EU level but members have blocked the organization calculating support levels for individual EU members.\n\nThis roundtable discussed the first estimates of support levels by EU individual countries produced by Ian Mitchell from the Center for Global Development. It looked at both direct subsidies under the CAP and those that inflate market prices. The discussion also considered the implications for EU finance\, for the potential role of EU subsidy reform and for the UK’s options after Brexit.\n\nTo read more of Mitchell’s work on the size and the impact of UK agriculture subsidies follow the link.
