The year 2014 firmly established the leadership and strategic direction of the Institute for years to come. In April, Yvo de Boer became Director-General of GGGI and committed his over 30 years of international environmental sustainability experience to strengthening the reach and impact of GGGI’s green growth initiatives. In November of 2014, the course of action that GGGI will take to ensure that our green growth activities achieve meaningful results and become green growth models of inclusive, sustainable development was clearly articulated in the Institute’s new five-year Strategic Plan.
