Rockefeller Foundation to host AsiaXchange 2024

As the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly progresses, The Rockefeller Foundation has announced it will host AsiaXchange 2024 in Bangkok, Thailand, from 1-3 October 2024. Centered around the theme, “Accelerating Asia’s Equitable Green Transformation: Taking a Systems Approach for Climate Action,” the event will focus on how countries, businesses, and communities can collaborate to create a sustainable, low-carbon future for the region. AsiaXchange 2024 will include practical discussions on using a systems approach, driven by cooperation among individuals, communities, governments, the private sector, and financiers, to promote a green and resilient Asia.

“Asia is at the centre of global climate action,” said Deepali Khanna, Vice President of the Asia Regional Office at The Rockefeller Foundation. She added, “With AsiaXchange 2024, we’re bringing together Asian financiers, policymakers, solutions providers, and leaders of frontline communities to share ideas, form partnerships, and find the solutions we need to secure a green, resilient future for all.”
