The high-level panel for this event includes a diverse group of experts and policymakers.

The discussion will revolve around whether the German government should realign its climate policy strategy in Brussels, in light of the European Commission's proposal for a reduction of net emissions by 90% by 2040 compared to 1990 levels. The event will conclude with a joint reception at the European House following the discussion.
