🌎 The “Low-Carbon Prosperity in Progress: Transforming Transport in Asia” Conference, co-organized by #NDCTIA and GIZ Thailand's transport cluster, brought together leaders from across Asia in Bangkok this week.  Focused on achieving climate action and prosperity through zero-emission transport, the conference highlighted crucial steps towards a sustainable future.   🚌 As the regional conference of the NDC Transport Initiative for Asia (#NDCTIA), the event emphasized the importance of transformation within the transport sector. Discussions centered on setting a path to reach net-zero emissions by mid-century.   🤝 Collaboration was a key theme, with success stories showcased from China, India, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines. These examples serve as inspiration for further action towards decarbonization across the region.   The conference program offered a variety of sessions, including:   🗣️ Regional perspectives from the Council for Decarbonizing Transport in Asia, along with keynotes from political partners in China, India, and Vietnam, provided valuable insights. Panel discussions explored industry transformation, lessons learned in NDC implementation, stakeholder engagement strategies, and emissions standards.   💡 Interactive workshops delved deeper into specific themes like zero-emission trucking, financing mechanisms for sustainable transport, and ensuring an equitable transition.   📌 A closing site visit to Energy Absolute's EV and Battery Plants in Bangkok showcased real-world examples of impactful sustainable transport solutions.   This conference not only strengthened ties within the Asian transport community but also charted a clear path for transforming our transport-energy systems towards a cleaner future. Furthermore, with climate targets and NDCs due to be updated in 2025, we believe the conference will contribute to the knowledge and international partnerships necessary to raise climate ambitions for transport in Asia. #TransportinNDCs (CT)
