The Forum of Young Global Leaders (YGL) of the World Economic Forum (Davos) has initiated a new effort to build cooperation between India and Pakistan on climate change, natural resource management and disaster risk reduction. The YGL Initiative on Indo-Pak Cooperation will focus on ‘Climate Change & Disaster Risk Reduction: Managing Risks, Sharing Benefits’. This is a multi-year effort emphasising practical initiatives that will be launched in Lahore from July 8 to 9, 2011, at the Lahore University for Management Sciences (LUMS). A follow-up to this will take place at the World Economic Forum’s regional summit in India in November 2011.
