AVSI at Codeway Expo 2025

A multi-stakeholder dialogue and a photo exhibition on climate change taking place at the Development Cooperation Expo in Rome, May 14-16

On Wednesday, May 14 at 3:00 PM, as part of Codeway Expo 2025 at the Fiera di Roma, AVSI is hosting an event titled "Italy’s role towards Cop30: Best practices in cooperation: scalability, risks, and opportunities".

The upcoming COP30 – the 30th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change – represents a valuable opportunity for Italy to make a meaningful contribution by sharing its experiences and best practices in the field of sustainable development.

Civil society organizations, the private sector, and public institutions will come together in a multi-stakeholder dialogue designed to foster collaboration among all actors working toward the goals of the 2030 Agenda.

A photo exhibition by AVSI and Matteo Bastianelli at Codeway Expo 2025

Throughout the duration of the Development Cooperation Expo (from Wednesday, May 14 to Friday, May 16), visitors will have the opportunity to visit a photo exhibition curated by Matteo Bastianelli, winner of the 2025 Sony World Photography Award - one of the world’s most prestigious ones.

His photos capture the impact of climate change on the environment and on the most vulnerable communities, offering a visual narrative that challenges stereotypes and provides an alternative perspective on Africa.
Portraits and everyday scenes from Mozambique document how the work of civil society organizations, supported by official development assistance, can bring about systemic change to promote fair and sustainable development.
