Latin America and Caribbean Climate Week 2019
The Latin America and Caribbean Climate Week will take place from 19 to 23 August 2019. It will help to set the tone for both the September Climate Summit in New York, and for the December UN Climate Change Conference COP25 in Santiago, Chile. The Government of Brazil and the City of Salvador — who are convening the event — have chosen Itaipava Fonte Nova as the venue.
A detailed agenda will be posted online shortly, but the High-Level segment has been confirmed for Thursday, 22 August and will feature ministers, policymakers, private sector leaders. The event will also showcase on-the-ground examples of climate solutions in the region that are cutting emissions and helping communities adapt to the changing climate.
