Brazil’s Ambassador to Lebanon Tarcísio Costa participated as a guest speaker at the launch of Lebanon’s Climate Policy Package at the Grand Serail, held under the patronage of Prime Minister Nawaf Salam and supported by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

The package consolidates three national strategies—the National Adaptation Plan (NAP 2025–2035), the updated Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC 3.0), and the Long-Term Low Emission Development Strategy (LT-LEDS)—marking Lebanon’s most comprehensive climate roadmap to date.

The event brought together senior government officials, international partners, and civil society representatives, including Prime Minister Salam, Environment Minister Tamara Elzein, and the Ministers of Energy, Justice, Health, Agriculture, Economy, and Industry.

In his address, Ambassador Costa underscored the objectives of COP30, scheduled for November in Belém, Brazil. He also highlighted Brazil’s priorities as COP30 president and congratulated Lebanon for aligning its climate strategy with the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, first endorsed at the 1992 Rio Conference.
