The CIACC 2026 will be developed through a dynamic format that will combine keynote lectures, round tables and networking spaces, favoring knowledge exchange and generating synergies among participants.

The congress builds on previous editions, such as the 4th International Climate Action Congress, which already highlighted the need to drive innovative and coordinated solutions to global environmental challenges.
