In a year that marks the 10<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0anniversaries of the Paris Agreement, the encyclical Laudato Si\u2019, and the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/franciscansinternational.org\/blog\/celebrating-the-canticle-of-the-creatures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">800-year anniversary of the Canticle of Creatures<\/a>, Franciscans International supported a large delegation to attend the UN Climate Conference. Twenty-four brothers and sisters, representing all branches of the Franciscan family, took part in events inside and outside the COP30 venue, sharing concerns of the grassroots communities they represent to demand stronger climate action.<\/p>\n<p>Despite an ambitious agenda set by the Brazilian presidency, COP30 ultimately fell short of delivering a breakthrough in the struggle against climate change. Billed as the \u2018COP of implementation\u2019, negotiators failed to adopt an envisioned roadmap to phase out fossil fuels. Instead, the commitment to transition away from fossil fuels made two years ago at COP28 in Dubai continues to be watered down at the insistence of a coalition of oil-producing countries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a great disappointment and shows the failure of political leaders to take the climate crisis seriously,\u201d said Budi Tjahjono, FI\u2019s International Advocacy Director. \u201cWhile it\u2019s encouraging to see that over 80 States are considering their own initiative to phase out fossil fuels, COP30 did not meet the moment. Similarly, while delegates agreed to an urgently needed increase in funding, these political pledges need to be made concrete. However, Bel\u00e9m did made one thing crystal clear: across the globe, people are running out of patience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Moving the debate forward<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-21559 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/en\/franciscan-takeaways-from-cop30\/cop30_1-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_1-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_1-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_1-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/en\/franciscan-takeaways-from-cop30\/cop30_2-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_2-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_2-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_2-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/en\/franciscan-takeaways-from-cop30\/cop30_3-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_3-1024x768.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_3-980x735.jpeg 980w, https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_3-480x360.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Spurred on by climate-vulnerable nations and civil society, the push for stronger climate action continued.

Drawing on inputs from communities at the frontlines of the climate crisis, the organizations propose that a Just Transition should not be narrowly approached as a shift to a low-carbon economy, but rather as a structural and systemic transformation to a more equitable, inclusive, and greener society.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the conference, FI joined several side-events and press briefings to raise the need for such a truly Just Transition and provide recommendations on the way forward to negotiators. This research also built on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/franciscansinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Beyond_Material_Loss_ENG.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a previous report on non-economic loss and damage<\/a>\u00a0released by FI and LWF during COP29 in Azerbaijan. Utilizing the deep connections of the two organizations in grassroots communities, this paper provides a deeper understanding of climate change-related impacts that cannot be expressed as monetary value, such as the destruction of cultural heritage or the loss of traditional knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>A global movement<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-21559 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/en\/franciscan-takeaways-from-cop30\/cop30_6-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_6-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_6-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_6-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/en\/franciscan-takeaways-from-cop30\/cop30_5-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_5-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_5-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_5-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/en\/franciscan-takeaways-from-cop30\/cop30_4-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_4-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_4-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/ofmjpic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/COP30_4-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Outside the COP30 venue, civil society organized a range of events to provide a platform to those unable to join the negotiations and to explore alternative solutions to the crisis.

The delegation met with Cardinals Fridolin Ambongo OFMCap, Felipe Neri, and Jaime Spengler OFM, the three signatories of the call to action by the Catholic Bishops\u2019 Conferences of the Global South who demand, among other things, payment of the ecological debt owed by wealthy industrialized nations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Where do we go from here?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"COP30: A message from Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo OFMCap\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/H33hfJ0vg0E?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content prose\">\n<p>Although COP30 did not meet most of civil society and States\u2019 expectations, the conference in Bel\u00e9m was not an endpoint in itself.
