Commodities amid the Climate Emergency: Sustainable Trade and Value Addition
The Global Commodities Forum - organized by UNCTAD with the support of its partners - is a major multi-stakeholder meeting to discuss and find pragmatic solutions to perennial problems of the commodity economy.
The Forum is a free, public platform to debate critical issues at the intersection of commodities and development. It helps frame international policy discussions on commodities and features developing countries' challenges and experts.

- Adaptation to the energy transition in fossil fuel-dependent developing countries.
- Promoting natural fibres in the climate action agenda.
- Fostering Sustainable Trade in Agricultural Commodities: The Role of Standards and Traceability.
- Critical minerals and the energy transition.
Registration and attendance are free of charge, but registration through UNCTAD website is mandatory for all participants, including invited government representatives, experts, and speakers.
