Tourism Thematic Days at COP30

Following its historic inclusion in the COP29 Action Agenda, tourism returns to COP30 with renewed determination to contribute meaningfully to global climate action. 

Responding to the Presidency's call for an "ambitious, integrated and solutions-oriented Action Agenda," the sector brings a people-centred perspective that connects directly with mitigation, adaptation, regeneration and finance.

The Tourism Days will be celebrated on 19-20 November 2025  featuring high-level and technical discussions, keynote presentations, and interactive exchanges, taking place across both the Blue and Green Zones , as well as online in collaboration with international partners to ensure inclusive participation and global reach.

Objectives

Through a mutirão - a collective effort - participants will share concrete actions that advance a low-carbon and climate-resilient future for tourism. The Tourism Days aim to support:

• Governance: Strengthen governance for tourism climate action through new institutional and financial mechanisms.
• Implementation: Foster exchange on practical approaches for emission reduction and climate adaptation in destinations and businesses.
• Collaboration and finance: Promote collaboration across sectors to scale solutions and improve access to finance for tourism climate action.
