Michel Colombier is invited to the two-days launch event for the Climate Policy Initiative (CPI), hosted by the German Institute for Economic Research (Deutsches Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung - DIW Berlin).

He will present how international support can enhance the scale, scope, and speed of low-carbon transition in developing countries. On the following day, during a workshop on "The Economics, Politics and Future of Subsidies", he will discuss case study from China.

The Climate Policy Initiative, supported by George Soros and headed by Thomas Heller (Stanford University), is a new analytical group organized to assess, report, and advise nations on the effectiveness of their efforts to implement low carbon development.
