IKI High Level Event: From Ambition to Implementation
Join the International Climate Initiative (IKI) for a forward-looking event exploring practical ways to move from ambition to implementation of climate action. This gathering will convene leading voices in global climate action, including the German Federal Minister for the Environment Carsten Schneider, government representatives from IKI partner countries, and Kamran Khan, Managing Director and Head of Sustainable Finance for Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa at Deutsche Bank.
Discussions will focus on turning climate commitments into concrete actions and implementing Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) on the ground. The event will also examine how robust climate strategies support economic development and create opportunities for sustainable investment by setting clear policy frameworks.
In addition, the event will mark the launch of the new 2025 IKI Calls, supporting partner countries in achieving their climate targets across emission reduction, adaptation, and biodiversity conservation.
Join this critical conversation and discover how international collaboration on ambition can transform into tangible climate impact worldwide!
About the International Climate Initiative:
Since 2008, the German government has been promoting climate action and biodiversity conservation in the Global South through the International Climate Initiative (IKI). Within the Federal Government, the IKI is anchored in the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Climate Action, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMUKN). In coordination with the BMUKN, however, individual projects are also commissioned and implemented by the Federal Foreign Office .
The IKI plays a central role in supporting the implementation of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Paris Agreement, and the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD).
