Our Global Challenges
What will our world look like in2O2S? In order to meet the challenges of tomorrow, our strategic planning must begin today.
Current global trends in demographics, migration, and industrialization are placing increasing stress on the
most basic resources
-
food, water and energy-with sweeping effects on international commerce. The importance of technology in advancing free trade and globalization is clear. But is technology as a vector of change entirely positive?
Changes in international trade patterns and economic development have seen the rise of new powerhouse
economies and a rebalancing of the global order. Despite a downturn in global GDP, continuing expansion
in emerging markets
-
such as China, India, Russia and the Persian Gulf-
is expected to counterbalance the economic decline of advanced economies. But is olobal trade today "inclusive"?Challenges like the sub-prime crisis, and the soaring .food and oil prices are creating new obstacles to
sustainable economic development. Confronted by
such challenges, is the world dividing once again?
As governments reassert their roles, global ties are
under strain, protectionism is increasing, and barrrers
to cross-border trade and investment are being reestablished. Are there really any "limits to growth"?
The session will focus on:
.
Population growth, migration and urbanization.
Resources: food, water and energy.
Technology: advancements and backlashes.
Knowledge in the information societyo Economic integration and globalization
.
Conflict and the transformation of force.
GovernanceFood,
Water and Energy
lmproved access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation are key requirements for achieving sustainable development as well as the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), designed to cut extreme poverty by
half by 2015. A recent World Health Organization study suggests that every dollar spent on improving sanitation generates an average economic benefit of US$7.
Energy is needed to improve irrigation systems and for water production, but in a world of soaring energy prices, ever scarcer water resources and a global food crisis, what are our chances of ensuring sustainable growth?
With food and energy markets both in turmoil, open trade policy in many nations could be undermined by rising inflation and trade imbalances. The food crisis is
becoming a real challenge to globalization. What are the
roles and responsibilities of business, government and society in moving forward?
To increase awareness of the importance of sanitation, the UN declared 2008 the International Year of Sanitation.
As the social and economic impact of water shortages has led to talks of a water crisis, what priorities need to
be set and what are the solutions needed to address this crisis?
Experts will discuss the following issues:
.
The food crisis: global, local or commodity-specific?r
What are the factors related to bioenergy?o What are the solutions to the water crisis?
o The interdependency between the food, water and energy crises
.
Can sustainable economic growth be achievedin least-develooed countries?
.
What are government agendas, priorities and resoonses to food and fuel crises?Economic
lmplications of Climate Change
Climate change could shrink the global economy by 2oo/o,
several recent studies show. Taking action now to mitigate
and adapt to the effects of climate change would bear an
estimated cost of about 1% of global GDp.
climate change is a global problem requiring a globalsolution and business
is part of that solution. The private sector is a critical provider of cost-effective
climate solutions. lt plays a central role in the development and use of existing
and new, cost-effective, efficient energy technologies with low greenhouse gas emissions in all sectors. Business needs clebr, predictable and stable frameworks for long-term planning and investment
-
important for implementing and accelerating technology cooperation for projects related to energyaccess,, supply and energy efficiency.
How will the development of a post 20'12 United Nations Framework
convention on climate change (UNFCCC) impact business decisions?
How can business contribute to the finalization of a UNFCCC agreement in Copenhagen at the end of 2009?
Panellists will address:
.
How can governments, business, and civil society best supporta global climate regime?
r
ls there contradiction between economic growth, trade liberalization,environmental protection and sustainable development?
r what
role can, and should business play in addressing climate change?r what
new opportunities and challenges are there for business worldwidein addressing climate change?
o What does business need to make the most of new opportunities?
.
What is the outlook for the next decade for climate, energy demand,the economv. the consumer?

CHAMBERS

Highlight of the Congress
The World Chambers Competition is the only global awards programme that provides international recognition to proiects undertaken by chambers from around the world.

least-developed countries. The last Competition drew strong interest from the chamber communitv, with 55 entries from 38 countries.
