About the event
2023 is a crucial year for Sweden and India. Sweden holds the EU Presidency and India holds the G20 Presidency. Further, Sweden and India share the UN leadership on Industry Transition towards Net Zero. With just seven years left before Agenda 2030, this year presents a crucial opportunity for Sweden and India to co-think and collaborate on creating solutions for climate action and explore possibilities of enabling digital transformation in low access regions, so that sustainable development and climate solutions can be accessed by all. Under the umbrella theme 'Samband for the Planet', Engaging India at Almedalen 2023 focuses on Climate Action & Digital Transformation and explores the planetary questions from a solving lens.
