Created 23 May 2013

A new report "Green Economy and Trade Trends, Challenges and Opportunities" has been prepared by the Trade, Policy and Planning Unit of the United Nations Environment Programme. It is a key component of the “Green Economy and Trade Opportunities Project”.
It aims to:

  • Identify a range of international trade opportunities in various key economic sectors associated with the transition to a green economy;
  • Identify policies and measures that may act as facilitators and overcome hindrances to seizing trade opportunities arising from the transition to a green economy; and
  • Assist governments, the private sector and other stakeholders to build capacity to take advantage of sustainable trade opportunities at the national, regional or international level.
