Cop 30 To Be Held In Belém

The 30th edition of the United Nations Climate Change Conference or the Conference of the Parties (COP) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), will be held in Brazil – in the city of Belém, in the state of Pará – from 10th to 21st November 2025.

In 2022, during his statement at the COP 27 (held in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt), Brazil's then President-Elect Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva said he would seek to make Brazil the host of COP 30 in 2025 and would aim to put the venue in one of the country's Amazon states (most of them in the northern region), rather than the more populous coastal region.

That would be the first time that Brazil, which is home to 60% of the Amazon Rainforest, the world's largest intact forest, hosts the event.

On 11 January 2023, President Lula and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced Belém as Brazil's candidate host city for the event.
