COP30 will take place from November 10 to 21, 2025, in Belém, northern Brazil.
Ten years after the Paris Agreement, the international community has reached a critical stage in fulfilling its commitments.
This COP, located in the heart of the Amazon, presents an opportunity to focus on the role of forests and their users, including crop and animal farmers.
According to CIRAD, transforming agrifood systems and forestry to ensure greater sustainability and social justice must be central to the discussions.
A notable example is Cirad'Innov Paragominas, the first municipality classified as "Green" in the Amazon, which has successfully halted deforestation.
Solutions from Cirad'Innov Paragominas can serve as a model for sustainable development.
