During the last quarter of 2025, Sitawi actively participated in COP30, held in Brazil, reinforcing our commitment to advancing climate action through innovative financial solutions and cross-sector collaboration.
Our presence at COP30 focused on strengthening dialogues around climate finance, philanthropic capital, and impact investment as key enablers of a just and effective socio-environmental transition.
Sitawi engaged with national and international stakeholders, including philanthropic organizations, impact investors, civil society representatives, and policymakers, contributing to discussions on how financial mechanisms can better support climate solutions in the Global South in more than 20 events.
Throughout the conference, we highlighted our experience in structuring and managing philanthropic and blended finance funds, with an emphasis on initiatives that promote environmental conservation, sustainable livelihoods, and social inclusion. COP30 also provided an important platform to share lessons learned from our portfolio and to exchange best practices with global partners.
As a result of our participation, we strengthened institutional relationships, identified potential partnerships, and expanded Sitawi’s international visibility within the climate and philanthropy ecosystem. These connections will directly support the development of future projects and the mobilization of resources for high-impact socio-environmental initiatives in Brazil.
We are grateful to our donors for making our participation in strategic global forums such as COP30 possible and for their continued trust in Sitawi’s mission.
