Rim Berahab, Senior Economist, will speak at the hybrid event titled “Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism: What is the impact on developing countries?”, jointly organized by Bruegel and the Center for Global Development (CGD).

This event aims to look more closely at the impact of the CBAM on developing countries and how the EU plans to support them in meeting the new requirements or mitigating the resulting trade diversion. As the CBAM regulation includes provisions to work with low- and middle-income countries to assist them in the decarbonization of their carbon-intensive industries, this event aims to shed light on those plans, and the related needs for climate finance.

This hybrid event will take place in Bruegel’s headquarters, Rue de la Charité 33, 4th floor, 1210 Brussels.
