South Korea’s Next Generation Leaders in Climate and Energy Policy

South Korea’s Next Generation Leaders in Climate and Energy Policy program focuses on South Korea’s ambitions through its 2050 net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions target and ambitious 2030 Nationally Determined Contribution. This program equips young Korean professionals in climate and energy policy to play a pivotal role in South Korea’s realization of this potential. Two study tour assignments to the EU and U.S. were conducted in 2022 and 2023, during which participants convened in meetings and networking events with leading government, private sector, and civil society experts to learn about best practices in policies, plans, and technologies to achieve net-zero GHG emissions, gain inspiration, and expand their networks among global peers.
