<\/h2>\n

Context:<\/strong> Sustainable finance and managing climate risk are becoming two of the most important issues facing investors and financial regulators. The financial risks and opportunities associated with climate change are particularly acute in Asia and Australasia. The region is highly vulnerable to climate change related natural disasters. Further, in meeting the demand of growing populations and economic growth, governments in the region have tended to lag other part of the world.<\/p>\n

Workshop:<\/strong>\u00a0The aim of the workshop is to encourage community building among researchers focused on climate finance in Asia and Australasia. We take a broad definition of climate finance-related topics (see list of topics below) and we welcome submission from a range of methodological approaches (empirical analyses, theoretical, macroeconomic\/monetary-environment models, case studies, policy analyses etc.). Papers should have clear relevance to policy or investment practice and utilise Asian and Australasian data or context.<\/p>\n

Paper Submission:<\/strong> Submit full paper or a long abstract by Monday 24th<\/sup> of August 2020 <\/strong>to CEFGroup@otago.ac.nz<\/a> putting \u2018Asia GRASFI Workshop \u2013 Paper Submission\u2019 <\/em>in the subject line.<\/p>\n

Notification: <\/strong>Accepted papers will be notified on Friday 28th<\/sup> of August.<\/p>\n

Publications Opportunities:<\/strong> We have arranged a Special Issue<\/a> of the Climate Policy<\/a> journal for this and another event later in the year. Suitable papers will be invited to submit to the Special Issue.<\/p>\n

Cost:<\/strong> There is no cost for presenters or those just attending.<\/p>\n

Indicative Topics:<\/strong> See the full\u00a0Call for Papers on Climate Finance and Risk in Asia – GRASFI side event v2<\/a> for a list of indicative topics.<\/p>\n
