Description
Room CC1
New certification schemes and labels such as Blue Dot Network, FAST-Infra Sustainable Infrastructure label, and PIDA Quality label enable infrastructure projects to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and quality standards, and attract investors who prioritise responsible and sustainable investments. An OECD survey shows that leading private sector investors believe a trusted certification framework can increase infrastructure investments in emerging and developing economies.
The session will discuss how certifications can be leveraged to bridge the infrastructure investment gap, and how to ensure consistency, complementarity and interoperability of related frameworks.
