Climate Value Exchange Monthly Planning Meeting
Monday – August 11, 2025
Monthly virtual meeting of CCI team members and partners and allies of the Climate Value Exchange. The focus is implementation of actions—including incentives and investment strategies—that support non-market cooperative climate action to build climate value in the everyday economy.
The aim of this interactive forum is to establish parameters for early-stage exploratory integrations of data systems operating through distinct technologies, covering different sectors, and spanning overlapping but differentiated timescales. We invite Good Food Finance Network partners and affiliated institutions, as well as expert and advocacy organizations, and public agencies working toward food systems finance innovation, to join, to share insights, and to recommend focused work on critical breakthroughs.

Climate Action & Food Systems Alliance virtual forum
Wednesday – September 10, 2025
The Climate Action and Food Systems Alliance brings networks, stakeholders, and innovators together to foster innovation to protect watersheds, restore ecosystems, and drive climate-resilient development that supports better livelihoods and affordable nutrition.
This second CAFSA virtual forum will aim to:
- clearly mark out the opportunities for advancing resilience-building food systems through the United Nations Climate Change process an other multilateral convenings;
- announce new partnerships to advance the CAFSA mission of fostering innovation to protect watersheds, restore ecosystems, and drive climate-resilient development;
- consider mechanisms for mainstreaming climate-related food systems innovation, at local, national, and international levels, including the role of data;
- project actionable timelines for new financing to climate-related food systems transformation efforts.

Activating the Climate Value Economy
September 2025 – Date TBC
The Climate Value Exchange was created to support innovative action toward high-ambition multidimensional multilateral climate cooperation, in line with Article 6.8 of the Paris Agreement. That means climate cooperation that serves mutliple goals and priorities at once.
The first Interparliamentary Exchange on Climate Value led to a resounding call for high-ambition cooperation to support better lives and livelihoods at the local level, especially in highly vulnerable or disrupted landscapes. This Climate Value Exchange virtual conference on Activating the Climate Value Economy will explore concrete actionable steps that can be taken, some without delay, to move toward:
- National climate laws that secure future prosperity;
- Food systems that are sustainable, healthy, and affordable;
- Reduced climate-related displacement and reduced conflict risk;
- Improved catalytic investment from private and multilateral financial institutions.

Good Food Finance Dialogue on Mechanisms for Mobilization (Part 2)
September 2025 – Date TBC
The Good Food Finance Network was established alongside the UN Food Systems Summit to provide actionable next steps in all of the areas identified as part of the global Food Finance Architecture. In 2023 and 2024, the GFFN committed to design and establishment of a co-investment platform for food systems transformation. That work will be the focus of this meeting.
In May 2025, Part 2 of the Good Food Finance Dialogue on Mobilization will include new detail about:
- The Good Food Finance Facility
- The Integrated Data Systems Initiative
- The Innovative Collaborative Funding Model
- Watershed Resilience-focused Collaborative Finance Measures
- Readiness work under a Green Climate Fund grant

Climate Banking Innovation Dialogue
October 2025 – Date TBC
Part 2 of the Climate Banking Innovation Dialogue will explore banking-related policy and practice, under Chatham House Rule, ahead of the Annual Meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, to outline the future of climate banking.
Climate impacts are getting worse, happening more frequently, costing more, and compounding each other’s effects. It is becoming ever more urgent for local communities, regional governments, and businesses at the micro, small, and medium scales, to establish climate resilience plans and capabilities.
The Paris Agreement calls for aligning financial flows with climate goals. The Baku Pact sets goals of $300 billion per year in public finance and $1.3 trillion per year from all actors, to assist developing countries in mobilizing toward those goals. This dialogue will gather insight into the core elements of an emerging climate banking system attuned to the needs of people, planet, and of institutions learning to operate in this new environment.

Earth Diplomacy Leadership prep for COP30 round of negotiations
Monday – Oct 6, 2025
The Earth Diplomacy Leadership Initiative will review the process and what is at stake, as usual, but will add important new opportunities to examine strategies for mainstreaming climate action through local and national econnomies, and through international cooperation.
Ahead of the COP30 round of U.N. Climate Change negotiations in Belém, Brazil, we will explore ways to avance climate-related finance mobilization, reduce debt and vulnerability, and incentivize locally led climate-resilient development and inclusive innovation.

Climate Value Exchange Conference
October 2025 – Dates TBC
The 2025 Climate Value Exchange Conference will expand on the 2024 Interparliamentary Exchange, and will connect events taking place during the 80th UN General Assembly and the Annual Meetings of the World Bank and IMF to emerging multilateral climate cooperation efforts. All other events in 2025 will feed into this conference, which aims to convene public officials and stakeholders from at least 10 countries.
This series of working meetings, dialogues, and public events will support progress toward activating the Climate Value economy, mobilizing climate-smart finance and trade, catalyzing Good Food Finance, and enhancing climate diplomacy, pollution pricing policies, and local economic diversification, innovation, and investment.
