Government priorities for COP26 - Kwasi Kwarteng

Institute for Government

The Institute for Government was delighted to welcome the Rt Hon Kwasi Kwarteng MP to reflect on the previous day’s discussions at our net zero conference and to set out the government’s priorities for net zero in the run-up to COP26. The Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy was in conversation with Bronwen Maddox, the Director of the Institute for Government. This event was part of the Institute for Government's international one-day virtual conference looking at the route to net zero ahead of COP26, the United Nations climate change summit that the UK will host in Glasgow in November. With many countries having adopted targets, the conference explored the challenges they will face in delivering them identified in the Institute's recent report on net zero, which you can find on our website: https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/publications/net-zero Find out more about our IfG Delivering Net Zero conference: https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/events/delivering-net-zero
