COP30 Belem, Brazil

November 10-21, 2025, Belem, Brazil – Blue Zone – Rainforest Pavilion

This November the UNFCCC Conference of the Parties (COP30), will be held in the Amazon, Brazil and will be our last rainforest climate summit this decade. Its location, in the world’s biggest rainforest, will be a real awakening for the over 90,000 delegates attending both in terms of the importance of rainforests and the effect of climate on the more disadvantaged. Hopefully, COP30 will send a clear message that the world must act with finance and supportive policies to save the world’s tropical forests

The Brazilian government and ITMO are committed to making the summit a success. Our goal for COP30 will be to play our part in helping scale up climate finance from all sources to secure $1.3 trillion annually by 2035 for developing countries. For forests, ITMO is working closely with the COP30 Presidency and other partners to bring about the full reversal of tropical deforestation under the Paris Agreement.

As such ITMO will be partnering with the Rainforest Coalition to be present at their Pavilion in the Blue Zone.

COP29 Baku, Azerbaijan

November, 2025, Baku, Azerbaijan – Blue Zone – Rainforest Pavilion

This year, the World Meteorological Society reported that there is an 80% likelihood that we will exceed 1.5°C for at least one of the next five years. We are truly in the eleventh hour.

Article 6 must deliver real, additional, and verified emission reductions and removals with the necessary speed and scale. For rainforest nations, Article 6 must become a robust finance tool to support efforts under Article 5.2 to conserve rainforests through the sale of Internationally Transferred Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs).

Join us for a series of topics on Article 6 throughout COP29 presented by the Coalition for Rainforest Nations and fellow Global Climate Allies. This series is designed for all people that want a better understanding of the Paris Agreement, climate policy, carbon markets, and sustainable development.
