Carbon Markets

Held under the patronage of the Supreme Council for Environment of the Kingdom of Bahrain, the roundtable gathered leading regional public and private sector experts in climate and sustainability, carbon markets and finance to assess the role of carbon markets in helping businesses and countries achieve their net-zero ambitions.

Experts presented views and analysis helping regional audiences build a better understanding of carbon markets – regionally and around the world, provided insight into their practical workings as well as the benefits they can provide as part of broader efforts to support, fund and accelerate MENA’s decarbonisation.
