Road to COP30

In this critical decade for climate action, when we are faced with a rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a liveable and sustainable future for all, it is crucial that those affected by the climate emergency are central to policy responses.

For the first time, COP30 will take place in the Amazon, the largest rainforest in the world and home to thousands of Indigenous and traditional peoples. It will be a key moment of reckoning. Failure to adopt urgent climate action contravenes not only the Paris Agreement target to keep global heating below 1.5°C, but also human rights obligations.

It is critical that COP30 catalyses political action to put people and planet over profits and produce concrete commitments for human rights-based climate action. Our work in the lead up to COP30 will focus on the intersection of environmental and human rights abuses, working to advocate for government and corporate accountability in accelerating a just energy transition. In solidarity with our partners, we are also working to advocate for effective and meaningful participation of communities and civil society in climate decision-making. It’s time their voices are heard in climate policies.
