Climate and Sustainable Development Diplomacy

The Climate and Sustainable Development Diplomacy program promotes international cooperation to strengthen policies, legislation and actions that advance climate action and sustainable development across its three dimensions: economic, social, and environmental.

More specifically, the program seeks to:

  1. Strengthen Brazil’s leadership on climate and sustainable development issues in multilateral and regional forums, with a focus on the United Nations (UN), G20, BRICS, Mercosur and the Amazon Cooperation Treaty Organization (ACTO).
  2. Foster bilateral cooperation between Brazil and strategic countries and partners on initiatives that promote climate action and sustainable development, both at the executive and legislative levels—including through parliamentary diplomacy—and across all levels of governance (federal, state, and municipal).
  3. Promote coherence and alignment across Brazil’s foreign policy, international commitments taken on by the country and national public policies and legislations, ensuring more effective monitoring, broader social participation and stronger coordination among different entities and levels of government in key forums and strategic topics for Brazilian foreign policy.
