Regional TEMs-M on “Enabling waste-to-energy and circular economy solutions to boost climate action” during Latin America and Caribbean Climate Week-23 August 2018 Montevideo
During the meetings, with the help of high impact case studies/examples, currently available technological solutions and innovative approaches for waste to energy and circular economy that are actionable in the short term for the LAC region will be discussed. Participants are expected to also discuss and share experiences on the necessary policy environment, best practices in fostering partnerships and need of financial, technical and capacity building resources for the replication and upscaling of abovementioned solutions.

Regional TEMs-M on “Enabling waste-to-energy, industrial waste reuse and prevention solutions to achieve circular economy and boost climate action” during Asia Pacific Climate Week-12 July 2018 Singapore
This meeting will focus on waste-to-energy, industrial waste reuse and prevention solutions as integral parts to achieving a circular economy and the associated triple win: economic, environmental and employment. With the help of high impact case studies/examples, currently available technological solutions and innovative approaches for waste-to-energy and waste reuse/prevention that are actionable in the short term for the Asia Pacific region will be discussed. Participants are expected to also discuss and share experiences on the necessary policy environment, best practices in fostering partnerships and need of financial, technical and capacity building resources for the replication and upscaling of abovementioned solutions.

Industry-implementation of circular economies and industrial waste reuse and prevention solutions - May 2018 (During SB48)
The specific objectives of the TEMs-M 2018 are to:
- Identify and explore the policy options, technological innovations and best practices on waste-to-energy (e.g. contractual arrangements) and supply chain redesign that are actionable in the short term to deliver emission reductions and generate sustainable development benefits, including a just transition of the workforce to these innovative sectors;
- Explore ways forward and necessary actions to be taken by Parties, non-Party stakeholders and organizations in relation to the replication and up-scaling of identified policy options, technological innovations and best practices on waste-to-energy and supply chain redesign.
The TEMs-M events will be structured/designed around the three key guiding questions adopted by the Talanoa Dialogue (Where are we? Where do we want to go? How do we get there?). The outcomes of the TEMs-M will provide quality input to the dialogue. The outcomes of TEMs-M will constructively feed back into the work programme of the Marrakech Partnership for Global Climate Action, the summary for policymakers, the high-level events and stock take on pre-2020 implementation.
