Post-Copenhagen series

SERIES OVERVIEW

Climate policy is one of the world's most testing economic, political and social challenges Australia faces. In the lead-up to the UN Climate Change conference in Copenhagen, CEDA released an extensive research report in August 2009 on the Australian and international climate policy context followed by a number of events. All discussions led to the UN Copenhagen Conference on 7 December 2009.

The Copenhagen Conference brought to light the shift in planned outcomes and the uncertain role of developed and developing nations since the 1997 Kyoto Protocol. It was evident that there are a number of new and existing barriers will continue to prevent the implementation of comprehensive treaty and international framework.

In 2010, CEDA will continue to act as a conduit for discussion and debate by hosting a number of forums around the nation to address the outcomes of the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen. CEDA will bring together key experts and industry leaders, government departments and businesses to discuss the future of climate change policy.

The series provides the opportunity to be involved in the debate and discussions on the next steps for Australia and the global community in consolidating an efficient and effective climate change policy.
