Environmental TC as a tool for the bi-regional alliance between the EU and LA
The potential of Triangular Cooperation (TC) is widely recognised today as a form of cooperation that promotes the exchange, systematisation, and dissemination of experiences and best practices, as well as activities related to technology transfer.
Within this framework, this study has been carried out with the main purpose of analysing TC as a tool for the bi-regional alliance between the European Union (EU) and Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), and to derive lessons that highlight, through the connection of local and global efforts, its key contribution to tackling the vast environmental challenges.
To this end, the study examines the historical development of EU-LAC bi-regional TC in the environmental sector, focusing on the most active stakeholders, the instruments that have been strengthened and those that need further strengthening, the environmental sectors/themes with potential to enhance the alliance, while also identifying challenges and opportunities for promoting bi-regional TC in general, and specifically in the environmental field.
