In this upcoming webinar, experts will discuss the importance of green freight as a priority sector for the city and national governments. Emissions caused by non-passenger activities are often ignored, and thus this webinar will sensitize the audience on the actions taken on green freight that can help governments achieve the NDC commitments, develop institutional capacity and understand freight emission assessment tools. The webinar organized by Asia LEDS Partnership under the Clean Mobility Community of Practice (CoP) is supported by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and LEDS Global Partnership (LEDS GP).
