Apolitical, Director, Government Energy and Climate Campus
If you're involved with climate work, November means one thing: COP. This year's event is as exciting as it is crucial. Marking 10 years since the pivotal Paris agreement, COP30 takes place in Belém, Brazil – the gateway to the Amazon rainforest.
With such an important summit ahead, I’m proud that Apolitical is playing a leading role in supporting public servants deliver and implement meaningful actions with the tools and resources below.
The COP30 Academy
Developed in partnership with the Brazilian COP30 Presidency, the academy offers courses, explainers, insights and briefings. Plus, tap into the collective wisdom of the multilateral climate community in the COP30 Community to advance negotiations at this year’s summit.
Created in partnership with Brazil’s COP30 Presidency and the UNFCCC, join the Community and connect with peers to get exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to COP30.
Lessons from experts and past presidencies on how to lead an impactful COP — from venue logistics and team structures to negotiation management and beyond.
The Former Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC discusses the merits of building strong personal relationships and the surprising benefits of walking clockwise around a table.
Read real-world cases from Brazil and beyond, including AI-enabled solutions to prevent and respond to disasters and the generative tools that are transforming emergency management and saving lives.
Scientists have made a "time machine" in the depths of the rainforest. At the AmazonFACE project, steel towers pump carbon dioxide into the rainforest canopy to mimic conditions expected in coming decades. By observing how mature trees respond to elevated CO₂, researchers hope to reveal the forest’s resilience to climate change.Sometimes, science fiction isn't so far away...
