Overview
- About 90–100 Munduruku protesters blocked the main entrance on Friday for roughly 90 minutes, forcing delegate rerouting before COP president André Corrêa do Lago engaged them and the gate reopened.
- The UN climate secretariat described the blockade as peaceful, and images showed do Lago speaking with protesters and holding a participant’s baby during the dialogue.
- The Munduruku demanded revocation of the National Hidrovías plan, cancellation of the Ferrogrão railway and clearer land demarcation, plus a meeting with President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, with no resolution announced.
- Thousands marched in Belém on Saturday — organizers estimated around 70,000 — staging a symbolic ‘funeral for fossil fuels’ and urging stronger action on Amazon protection and climate justice.
- Negotiations have stalled over finance, adaptation and a possible fossil‑fuel roadmap, with the presidency moving disputes to ministers next week and considering a broader end‑of‑conference decision text.
