Prince William Visits Brazil to Promote Earthshot Prize Amid Security Concerns

Prince William is set to visit Brazil for the first time, where he will promote his environmental Earthshot Prize initiative and attend significant events including the Earthshot Prize awards and the United Nations Climate Summit. His visit to Rio de Janeiro includes engagements such as visiting local attractions, participating in community football programs, and highlighting biodiversity, with a keynote speech planned at the COP30 climate change summit in Belem. The Earthshot Prize, launched in 2020, rewards environmental innovations with substantial grants, and William's visit aims to inspire bold climate leadership amid global attention on Brazil. Despite recent deadly drug raids in Rio, security has been increased to ensure safety during his visit. William has expressed excitement about experiencing Brazil's vibrant culture and biodiversity and emphasized the importance of working together for a sustainable future. His father, King Charles III, has shown a keen interest in his environmental initiatives and supports the tour.
