On Thursday, February 16, the Center for Sustainable Development (CSD) at Brookings Global Economy and Development Program will launch “Keys to Climate Action: How developing countries could drive global success and local prosperity,” a new volume edited by CSD scholars Amar Bhattacharya, Homi Kharas, and John W. McArthur.  The book project brings together a cross section of distinguished academics and leading policy voices from a variety of developing country geographies and contexts.

CSD Director John W. McArthur will open the event, followed by initial remarks from Zia Khan, senior vice president for innovation at The Rockefeller Foundation, and Homi Kharas. Amar Bhattacharya will then moderate a distinguished panel featuring four chapter authors, Sara Jane Ahmed, Richard Calland, Mahmoud Mohieldin, and Vera Songwe.
