The Midwest Climate Summit is the premiere regional gathering of climate leaders, researchers, and practitioners to expand knowledge and accelerate action. The Summit is hosted by the Midwest Climate Collaborative, a cross-sector collaboration connecting organizations in 12 states to respond collectively to the climate crisis.
The Summit is focused on taking those next steps to advance climate work. Participants will find partners, learn about new resources, and strategize for action beyond the Summit.
The vision of the Midwest Climate Collaborative is a carbon neutral, climate resilient, interconnected Midwest region. Any local government, business, non-profit, college, or university looking to work with others on equitable climate mitigation, adaptation, or resilience is invited to attend.
The 2026 Summit is an in-person event in Cleveland, OH, including virtual participation options.
At the Summit you can:
- Connect with other climate leaders
- Share knowledge across sectors
- Explore climate solutions in the Greater Cleveland community
- Accelerate cross-sector collaboration
- Seed new partnerships
