This agenda includes mechanisms to protect the Amazon rainforest and the development of clean energies, as well as Colombia’s proposal on foreign debt swap for climate action.

The Summit was summoned by French President Emmanuel Macron with the aim to build the foundations of a new international financial pact that will particularly help the most vulnerable countries facing the climate crisis.

It will take place at the Brongniart Palace in Paris with the attendance of more than a hundred world leaders, where six round tables, 30 labeled events and more than 50 side events will take place.

Petro will arrive to Paris tomorrow, Wednesday, and on Thursday will attend the opening of the Summit, accompanied by Macron and UN Secretary General António Guterres, among others.
