Brazil Summit

Brazil, Latin America’s largest economy, stood at a pivotal moment. A global leader in agriculture, mining, and manufacturing, it also played a key role in energy and climate policy. With the G20 presidency behind it and COP30 ahead, Brazil faced critical questions: Could it lead global climate efforts while expanding oil and gas production? What reforms and investments would drive innovation, infrastructure, and social progress?
