The Athens Summit 2009 - The Road to Copenhagen: Managing Climate Change & Energy Security in SE Europe and Beyond
[12-13 May 2009]

>>  Sourcing and securing energy supplies and meeting climate change targets continue to be a top priority for policy makers around the world, despite the economic challenges. 

>>  For the countries of South East Europe and the Mediterranean, the challenge is to put in place energy strategies which meet global sustainability objectives whilst reflecting local conditions and priorities.  

>>  This region is in a unique geographical position as gateway to Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. With the UN Copenhagen Climate Change Conference coming up in 2009, it therefore has a central role to play in demonstrating best practice in intergovernmental cooperation in guaranteeing energy supplies, as well as in local practice in delivering efficiencies, driving investments and facilitating the speedy transition to a regional low carbon economy.
