About the Event


The Santa Marta Conference (24–29 April) is positioned as the first in a series of international moments to advance a global fossil fuel phase-out, contributing to the development of a shared roadmap under the UNFCCC and through complementary coalition efforts, with future conferences expected to build on outcomes and explore more formalised frameworks, including treaty-based approaches. At a time of growing geopolitical tensions and uncertainty, the Conference aims to help sustain international cooperation on the transition away from fossil fuels.

This discussion will explore how the EU and its Member States can engage constructively in the Santa Marta process, contribute to a coalition of willing countries, and advance the principles of a just, equitable, and adequately funded transition away from fossil fuels. It will also examine key policy challenges — including overcoming economic dependence on fossil fuels, transforming energy systems, closing governance gaps, and addressing barriers in international investment and trade frameworks — while highlighting the role of EU climate diplomacy, finance, and energy policy in sustaining momentum toward a global fossil fuel phase-out beyond the Conference.
