Congrats to A2W athlete Kevin Wekesa @wekesa_kenya on winning the IOC Climate Action Award! Through Play Green, Kevin shows what Adapt2Win is all about: climate adaptation driven by people, communities, and sport. #Adapt2Win #ClimateAdaptation #Olympics2026

Investing in climate adaptation could create 280 million jobs over the next 10 years. Adaptation isn’t a cost — it’s an economic opportunity. Find this report and more in the Knowledge Hub at Adapt2Win.org #Adapt2Win #COP30NoPará #ClimateAdaptation #ClimateFinance

In Cameroon, Dr. Innocent and the University of Dschang are building a predictive system to anticipate malaria spikes — allowing communities to prepare medicines, staff & supplies before outbreaks hit. #COP30NoPará #ClimateAdaptation #Adapt2Win #malariaprevention

Last week was another reminder that climate impacts are accelerating — and adaptation is now a survival imperative. It’s time for leaders to invest in scaling these solutions and protect the people most exposed to rising risks. #Adapt2Win #COP30NoPará

At Makeni Hospital in Sierra Leone, Ramatullai is training midwives to adapt their medical practices for extreme heat. Her work shows why investing in frontline leaders is key to Adapt2Win. #Adapt2Win #COP30NoPará #ClimateAdaptation #MaternalHealth

This week at #COP30 showed that adaptation is not a side conversation — it is THE conversation. #Adapt2Win #COP30NoPará

Less than 10% of climate finance goes to adaptation — a missed opportunity with real consequences. The message is clear: adaptation finance must be prioritized at COP30. #Adapt2Win #COP30NoPará #ClimateFinance

When you’re outmatched, there is only one way to win. You have to adapt. Join us in calling on leaders at COP30 to invest in adaptation now. Adapt2Win.org #Adapt2Win #cop30nopará

Africa Pavilion | COP30 Accelerating Adaptation Action: Increasing Climate Finance for Low-Income African Countries PACJA joined African leaders and partners today at the Africa Pavilion to advance a clear message: Africa’s adaptation agenda cannot move without predictable, accessible, and just climate finance. Speakers underscored the widening gap between Africa’s climate vulnerabilities and the resources available to address them — a gap made worse by slow financing mechanisms, rising debt burdens, and persistent under-delivery from developed countries. The conversation reinforced three priorities: • Finance that reaches frontline communities, not intermediaries • Governance reforms to make global climate finance faster and fairer • Recognition of Africa’s ecological contributions and the need for reparative justice PACJA continues to amplify these demands at COP30, pushing for outcomes that reflect Africa’s realities and protect those most affected by climate impacts. #AfricaCOP30 #PACJA #ClimateJustice #AdaptationFinance #AfricaPavilion #ClimateAndEconomicJustice

Every athlete knows —when you’re outmatched, you adapt. Climate change demands the same mindset.  At #COP30, we can invest in #climateadaptation — protecting people, communities, and ecosystems. Leaders, it’s your move. #Adapt2Win

🟡As noted by @lulaofficial, climate change is already disrupting our food systems. Without real adaptation finance, farmers & communities can’t cope. To safeguard our forests and secure our food, equity & resilience, #COP30 must deliver on #ClimateAction. #GoodFood4All

🔬 In Cameroon, scientists are using climate and health data to get ahead of malaria outbreaks — saving lives. As the Belém Health Action Plan launches at #COP30, it’s time to #InvestInAdaptation and strengthen the links between climate and health 👉 climahealth.info/cop30/

Leaders opened COP30 with a clear message: this must be the COP of Action. The world’s ready to act. Now it’s time to invest in climate adaptation. #COP30 #Adapt2Win #ClimateAction #COPofAction

From drought to food insecurity, communities are adapting every day. Investing in #ClimateAdaptation strengthens food systems, protects livelihoods, and ensures no one is left behind. Read UNEP’s new #AdaptationGap Report to find where more efforts are needed. #Adapt2Win #COP30

Adapt2win: When Champions Turn Climate Warriors  As the world sprints toward COP30 in Belém, Brazil, one unlikely front has emerged in the race against climate change, and that is sport.  It’s where flooded football pitches, melting ski slopes, and parched running tracks tell a story no scoreboard can capture.  And it’s where the new global campaign, Adapt2Win, is rallying athletes to use their star power to push for serious action on climate adaptation.  Full story: bit.ly/4qXidiD @adapt2win_org

Climate adaptation is not optional. Superstar athletes around the world are making this message clear ahead of @Cop30noBrasil—and I’m proud to join them. Surfers, sailors, basketball players, and more have united behind the global @adapt2win_org campaign. Footballers, including Brazil’s Tamires Dias, England’s Raheem Sterling, and Nigeria’s Kenneth Omeruo, recently spoke to @Reuters about their decision to join Adapt2Win and climate change’s impact on their careers and communities alike. Climate shocks are only increasing—investing in resilience now is essential. The upcoming #COP30 conference is a pivotal moment. Farmers and communities that depend on successful harvests for their lives and livelihoods need every voice in their corner, and I’m thrilled athletes are using their platforms to call for immediate action.
