1. Overview

Decision 7/CMA.1 mandates the forum on the impacts of the implementation of response measures to convene under subsidiary bodies. The adopted workplan 4/COP.25, 4/CMP.15 and 4/CMA.2 requires the forum to implement a set of activities at its each meeting using a defined modality e.g. input from experts, practitioners and relevant organizations; awareness-building and enhancing information-sharing through the exchange and sharing of experience and best practices, etc.

2. Objective

The objective of this event is to provide an informal space to experts to hold technical discussion on
Country driven strategies and best practices on just transition of workforce and creation of decent work and quality jobs. Experts discussion will focus on challenges and opportunities from the implementation of low greenhouse gas emission policies and strategies towards the achievement of sustainable development.
