GEAPP Partner Roundtable Discussion
Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) will organize a roundtable discussion from 14.00 – 16.00 on 21 February 2023 at the Metropole hotel to co-create a strategic approach to supporting the Government of Vietnam delivering their energy transition objectives and ensure that we are drawing on all our strengths, expertise and experience.
We would like to hear about your respective organizations’ priorities in Vietnam (relative to the just energy transition) and how the Alliance and GEAPP can support these issues, as well as the key challenges you’ve identified, so we develop a joint approach to tackling these issues (where appropriate).
