This event is the first in the series of closed-door events co-hosted by the European Investment Bank (EIB), NDC Partnership, the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP), and Agence Française de Développement (AFD), which builds on the feedback received from 12 central banks which participated in the first peer learning exchange, titled “Greening Central Banks: Learning for experience” in 2024, where regulators, Central Banks, and experts shared their experiences, challenges, lessons learned, and best practices in undertaking climate scenario analysis.
