How local insights become national policy, and global learning | GBPN
At COP30, new NDCs were ratified and the global conversation centred on delivery. Governments are seeking credible approaches that can turn these ambitions into measurable impact. Effective models are those that not only deliver emissions reductions, but also build systems capable of sustaining long-term change.
Indonesia offers one such model.

Promises don't Reduce Emissions - Policy Implementation Does | GBPN

When countries gather at COP30 in Belém, one question will hover behind every climate pledge: Can it actually be implemented? Promises don't reduce emissions.
Decarbonizing buildings requires ambitious policies, but more importantly it requires that they be implemented. When commitments are made,
