Impacts of CoVid-19 on China’s economy and future climate action – 9 April

Four months after the CoVid-19 crisis burst out, what is the economic situation and short-, medium- and long-term prospects of China? Is the crisis likely to impact China’s next five-year plan (2021-2025), and if so, how? Is the crisis having a negative impact on China’s climate ambitions, or can it be transformed into a window of opportunity for the climate? How does China envisage its diplomatic relations, and who are the influential players in the Chinese debate?

Dong Yue, research fellow, Energy Foundation China, and Li Shuo, Greenpeace China, will discuss these issues during a webinar moderated by Sébastien Treyer, executive director, IDDRI.
