LEDS GP voices: Supporting governments to mainstream low emission development

Three new films from the LEDS GP demonstrate how LEDS GP is supporting Asian and African governments to mainstream low emission development.

During the 2018 meeting on long term climate strategies in Bangkok, we caught up with our members from around the world to talk about how LEDS GP is making a difference and to ask the question: what does low emission development mean to you? This page pulls together insights from three African and Asian delegates, who explain the importance of low emission development in their national contexts.
