Transportation infrastructure is vital across the Americas, and globally, but it’s a carbon hungry industry. This panel considers how to decarbonise the Latin American transport industry, and the role that agencies have to play in the shift.

  • Evaluating regional transportation project pipelines: where are the opportunities?
  • Understanding innovative financial mechanisms and overcoming challenges like currency risk; considering risk management tools
