COP30
Turning climate ambition into real-world impact
Whitepapers
COP30 will take place from November 10 to 21, 2025, in Belém, Brazil – at the heart of the Amazon, where the urgency of climate action and the opportunity for transformation are deeply intertwined. This year’s conference arrives at a pivotal moment: the first Global Stocktake has made clear the scale of change required, and the world is looking to turn commitments into measurable, equitable progress.
As governments, businesses, and civil society gather to shape the next phase of climate ambition, COP30 offers a critical platform to accelerate decarbonisation, strengthen resilience, protect nature, uphold human rights, and support communities on the frontlines of climate change.
At Anthesis, we are committed to helping businesses navigate the evolving landscape of climate disclosure, transition planning, sustainability strategy, and human rights. As a TNFD adopter, we support organizations in aligning with global frameworks such as ISSB and TCFD, turning ambition into action through nature-positive, climate-resilient, and socially responsible strategies.
Throughout the summit, we will be sharing insights and practical guidance aligned to the core themes shaping COP30—helping organisations understand implications, assess emerging expectations, and translate ambition into meaningful, measurable action.
Key themes
- Decarbonisation & Energy Transition
- Climate Adaptation & Resilience
- Nature & Biodiversity
- Food Systems Transformation
- Climate Finance & Investment Mobilisation
- Human & Social Development

COP30: themes
Decarbonisation & energy transition
COP30 will elevate the urgency of transitioning away from fossil fuels and accelerating the deployment of renewable, efficient, and just energy systems. Anthesis supports organisations to design science-aligned decarbonisation pathways, implement emissions reduction solutions, and deliver net zero strategies that are technically credible, operationally feasible, and socially responsible.
Climate adaptation & resilience
As climate shocks intensify, COP30 will underscore the need for resilience strategies that protect communities, supply chains, natural systems, and infrastructure. Anthesis helps organisations assess physical and transition risks, develop adaptation plans, and embed resilience into governance, operations, and investment decision-making.

The Purpose Gap is back
61% of employees say their organisation’s actions no longer reflect its stated purpose. While many companies are pulling back under pressure, a growing minority are doubling down—embedding purpose into culture and operations and outperforming as a result.
The question is no longer whether purpose drives performance, but whether your organisation is equipped to close the gap.
Nature & biodiversity leadership
Hosting this years summit in the Amazon highlights the critical importance of halting nature loss and elevating Indigenous and local knowledge in climate action. Anthesis supports nature-positive strategies aligned with TNFD and jurisdictional approaches, working with partners and communities to deliver solutions that restore ecosystems and strengthen cultural stewardship.
Food systems transformation
Food systems are both vulnerable to climate change and central to global emissions, making systemic transformation a core COP30 priority. Anthesis helps organisations shift toward regenerative and low-carbon land use models, improve supply chain sustainability, and design equitable solutions that enhance livelihoods and ecosystem health.
Climate finance & investment mobilisation
Delivering climate and nature goals depends on mobilising capital at scale and directing it toward high-impact solutions. Anthesis works with corporates, investors, and financial institutions to structure transition finance strategies, model climate-related financial impacts, and unlock investment pathways that support fair, scalable implementation.
Human and social development
COP30 will emphasise that climate action must also advance equity and wellbeing. A just transition depends on protecting livelihoods and human rights while expanding access to opportunity. Anthesis supports organisations to integrate social impact into climate strategies, engage communities, and design transition plans that deliver fair and inclusive outcomes.
