Sustainable national roadmaps towards the global objective of 1.5 and 2°C – the Brazilian perspective

A CD-LINKS stakeholder and capacity building workshop was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on 21 March 2019. Titled ‘Sustainable national roadmaps towards the global objective of 1.5 and 2°C – the Brazilian perspective’ this workshop brought together representatives from the Brazilian government, international delegations, businesses, civil society and researchers to discuss important insights from the CD-LINKS project with particular relevance for Brazil.

Presentations during the event also provided insights on Integrated Assessment Models and their use for policy making, including how such models informed the IPCC Special Report on 1.5 °C and what insights such models can provide on broader sustainable development goals and the transformation of energy systems.
