This session will focus on investment treaties’ alignment with net-zero goals, from the perspective of Article 2.1(c) of the Paris Agreement to make finance flows consistent with a pathway towards low greenhouse gas emissions and climate-resilient development. The discussion will consider approaches to the definition of covered investment and other investment treaty provisions relevant to the consistency of the finance flows promoted by investment treaties with a net zero pathway. This session will also address the issue of the impact of investment treaties and their interpretation on government policy space and incentives to engage in climate policies and will examine recent reforms and reform proposals.
