Latin America and the Caribbean, home to over 60% of the world’s biodiversity and strategic ecosystems such as the Amazon, the Caribbean, Patagonia, and the Mesoamerican Corridor, play a pivotal role in global climate stability. At the same time, it is one of the regions most vulnerable to climate change impacts, making it urgent to advance solutions that integrate mitigation, adaptation, and biodiversity conservation.

Against this backdrop, COP30 —to be held from November 10 to 21, 2025, in Belém do Pará, Brazil— will mark a historic milestone to place the region at the heart of global climate negotiations. CAF will host the Latin America and the Caribbean Pavilion in the Blue Zone, under the theme “Solutions for the Climate: Solutions for the People.” This space will serve as a platform for dialogue and coordination of voices and proposals, underscoring how climate action can also deliver well-being, inclusion, and sustainable development for millions of people.

The pavilion will foster debate around three key areas: mitigation, resilience/adaptation, and biodiversity, with the goal of making regional priorities visible, strengthening integration, and mobilizing climate finance for the region.

Through this initiative, CAF reaffirms its commitment to positioning Latin America and the Caribbean as a region of solutions, providing concrete responses to global challenges while always placing people and life at the center.
