Dates and location

Key messages

The 19th International Conference on Community-Based Adaptation to Climate Change (CBA19) will take place during the week commencing 12 May 2025 in Recife, Brazil. So participants can now save the date for the only adaptation conference that prioritises voices and solutions from the frontline communities most impacted by climate change.

CBA19 will be a bit different – participants can expect more interactivity, with field trips integrated into the agenda and engaging sessions in English, Portuguese and Spanish. But as always, the CBA agenda will be shaped by its participants. We are also looking to include a range of hybrid options to maximise global engagement.
