Southeast Asia faces not only immediate shocks from the COVID-19 pandemic, but also long-term sustainability challenges. Financing conservation efforts is key to green recovery and resilience in Southeast Asia, which is expected to be among the worst-hit regions by climate change. These were the key observations made at the 7th Singapore Dialogue on Sustainable World Resources (SDSWR) organised by the SIIA in November 2020. The two-day virtual conference was attended by almost 320 policy makers, industry experts, corporate leaders, and key decision-makers from around the region, in particular, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore.
