Rio Climate Action Week
Rio de Janeiro (Brazil)
Saturday 23rd August 2025 - Friday 29th August 2025
Rio de Janeiro (Brazil)
Rio Climate Action Week (RCAW) is an independent initiative, in partnership with the Mayor of Rio de Janeiro and London Climate Action Week. It is the latest edition of a series of city-based climate action weeks – which include Auckland, Baku, Bangkok, Dublin, Prague, Shanghai and Sydney – inspired by the unique model pioneered by London Climate Action Week from 2019 onwards.
RCAW is closely tied to the UNFCCC process of climate diplomacy and its implementation-focused action agenda. It owes its origins to a desire to promote closer cooperation between the COP29 and COP30 Presidencies at a pivotal time for international climate change policy and action.
Rio Climate Action Week is a prominent city-based response to the Brazilian COP30 Presidency’s call for “mutirão” – collective effort.
RCAW and the climate action weeks are Mutirão in Action: demonstrating both bottom-up and top-down action to mitigate and adapt to the impacts of climate change and build resilience across societies and communities.

Climate and Impact Summit Europe: Nature-based solutions – unlocking investment for biodiversity and climate resilience
London and Online
Wednesday 21st May 2025
London (UK)
Over the past half-century, global wildlife populations have declined by nearly 75%. This alarming trend poses significant risks to human health, the global economy and ecosystems. Investors, including pension funds and insurance firms, are increasingly aligning their portfolios with nature-positive outcomes to mitigate financial risks associated with environmental degradation. Nature-based solutions can harness the power of nature to boost natural ecosystems, biodiversity and human well-being to address major societal issues, including climate change.
- How can companies go beyond traditional CSR to adopt nature-based solutions as part of their long-term sustainability strategy, creating value through ecosystem restoration, sustainable sourcing, and climate resilience? –
- How can instruments such as biodiversity bonds, green ETFs, and biodiversity-linked loans appeal to impact investors and traditional capital markets, scaling investment in NbS initiatives?
- How can companies in high-impact sectors (e.g., agriculture, forestry, mining) incorporate biodiversity initiatives into their business models to enhance resilience and brand sustainability value?
