How is Sweden enabling the green transition in other countries? Passed

The main theme for COP27 is a just transition and hence this session will focus on developing economies in terms of both their own needs (National Determined Contributions) and what obstacles should be removed in order to enable the export of Swedish climate solutions (both for climate change mitigation and adaptation), while simultaneously contributing to capacity building in developing economies. Swedish development cooperation will be a crucial part of this work. 

The global climate benefits that Swedish exports contribute to corresponds to a reduction of half of the total emissions in Sweden. This can be further accelerated by more fossil fuel-free energy and faster permit processes in Sweden and a focus on related policy changes concerning free trade, governance, financial matters as well as more focus on entrepreneurship in export markets.
