About

Global Citizen NOW is heading to the heart of the Amazon, just months before COP30 convenes world leaders in the region for the most pivotal climate summit since the Paris Agreement. This gathering will shine a spotlight on community-driven solutions and will elevate the voices that matter most: Indigenous leaders, policymakers, business innovators, and changemakers from across the Amazon Basin and beyond. 

Together, we’ll focus on three urgent themes: protecting rainforests, advancing a just energy transition, and supporting climate resilience.
