LAW, JUSTICE And dEvELopmEnT WEEk 2016Law, cLimate change and deveLopment

Law, Justice and Development (LJD) Week is the only event of its kind, bringing together the global community engaged in using law and legal tools to contribute to development. LJD Week sponsors reach a specific and influential audience including the General Counsel of the world’s Development Finance Institutions, international development practitioners, government officials, investors, and development partners. LJD Week offers exceptional opportunities:• To connect with top legal professionals in the development commu-

nity.• To showcase products and programs related to this unique audience. A key factor in the success of LJD Week has been the participation of a broad community of globally significant stakeholders. As the World Bank’s Senior Vice President and General Counsel, Anne-Marie Leroy, explains: “My fellow General Counsel are keen to know when each year’s LJD Week will be sched-uled, so that they can plan their calendars well in advance.” LJD Week 2016 is organized by the Legal Vice Presidency of the World Bank, in collaboration with the Global Forum on Law, Justice and Devel-opment (GFLJD) which includes over 170 international partners.

InvITATIon

On Earth Day this year, more than 175 countries signed the Paris Agreement, setting an all-time record for the number of countries signing international agreement on a single day. The Paris Agree-ment sets out a global action plan to avoid dangerous climate change by limiting global warming to below 2°C. Now, the world’s attention is shifting from negotiation to implementation. Implement-ing the Paris Agreement will require new laws, new regulations, and unprecedented levels of international legal cooperation.

In November, the UN Framework Conference on Climate Change will meet again, this time in Marrakech, to flesh out the decisions taken in Paris. And in December, LJD Week 2016 will bring the world’s development lawyers together to begin realizing the commitments of the Paris Agreement. This conference will be a key milestone in developing the legal and regulatory framework to accelerate our global transition to low carbon economies.

LJD Week 2016 will mark a historic opportunity to focus on the pro-cesses that will be needed to capture the Paris commitments in laws which set national targets and make them binding and enforceable; laws that permit countries to achieve greater energy efficiency; and laws that require far reaching changes in national energy systems, and in agricultural and manufacturing practices.
