Brazil will host COP30 in November, the annual climate negotiations aimed at addressing the harmful impacts human activities have on the climate.
This year’s COP30 holds special significance as it will be held in the Amazon, the world’s most biodiverse biome. Despite the challenging geopolitical climate, particularly due to the second presidency of Trump, Brazil is prepared with contingency plans to invigorate the conference.
In light of the criticisms directed at our multilateral global order, Rached will emphasise the importance of strengthening the normative foundations of the global political system as a solution to these challenges.
🔹 Speaker:
