BELEM, Brazil, Nov. 19 (Xinhua) -- Bruna Cerqueira, director of the Action Agenda at the 30th Conference of the Parties (COP30) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, said Tuesday that the Brazilian presidency is focused on turning political commitments into tangible climate solutions.

Speaking at a press briefing on the ninth day of COP30, held through Nov. 21 in the Amazonian city of Belem, Cerqueira assessed progress in negotiations and outlined the core strategy guiding this year's summit.

"We are working across all pillars of the Action Agenda to advance plans that accelerate solutions and move from commitments to results," she said, emphasizing continuity with the work of previous COP presidencies.

Cerqueira detailed the political structure supporting COP30, designed to integrate multiple levels of action. "From the start, we have understood that the COP must be built on four pillars: the leaders' summit, which opens the process; the negotiations; the Action Agenda; and mobilization toward the three objectives we established," she said.

The goals, she added, are to protect multilateralism, speed implementation and connect climate action to people's daily lives.

She also highlighted major advances in financing for Indigenous peoples and local communities. The 1.2 billion U.S. dollars pledged at COP26 was delivered a year early and is now nearly doubled. "At this COP, we are renewing that commitment, expanding it to 2 billion dollars with 30 donors already supporting the proposal," she said, noting Brazil's announcement of new Indigenous land demarcations as part of broader legal and administrative efforts.

Bioeconomy initiatives also took center stage. Following Brazil's G20 declaration, COP30 is moving toward an action plan to set indicators, reduce investor risk and scale up financing.

Among the new tools introduced is the Earth Investment Engine, designed to draw private capital to projects with positive environmental impacts.

Brazil and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations also launched a plan to strengthen fire management by training more than 10,000 local community members, with the goal of sustainably managing 10 million hectares before 2028.

Cerqueira stressed that climate challenges require multiple approaches. "In the real world, we need a combination of solutions, and that is exactly what our Action Agenda proposes," she said. ■
