COP30: A quick background
The Conference of the Parties (COP) brings together world leaders, policymakers, and climate experts annually to negotiate global climate action.

COP shapes international climate policy - from the Kyoto Protocol to the Paris Agreement - making it the world's most significant platform for coordinating the fight against climate change.
In 2025, Belem, Brazil hosts COP30. The city will provide the world with a unique platform to discuss climate solutions, firmly rooted in the heart of the Amazon.

Sylvera will be on the ground at COP30, participating in critical conversations about the future of carbon markets. With Article 6 pressure accelerating and questions around quality coming to the fore, the need for rigorous, project-level due diligence has never been more urgent.
