Close Protection & Secure Transport for COP31 in Antalya, Turkey

The COP31 climate conference is expected to bring together global leaders, policymakers, and industry stakeholders in Antalya. The scale and profile of attendees will place increased demand on local infrastructure, alongside a heightened security presence and evolving travel considerations.

For organisations deploying executives, government representatives, or operational teams, an intelligence-led approach supports safe and efficient movement. Solace Global Risk delivers tailored journey management and protective services, combining local expertise, experienced personnel, and real-time intelligence to coordinate secure transport and provide close protection where required, helping organisations move with confidence.

Why COP31 in Antalya Presents Unique Security Considerations

With COP31 expected to take place in Antalya, Turkey in November 2026, delegates and support teams should plan for a range of security and logistical considerations:

Infrastructure strain due to high international attendance
Increased political demonstrations and activist activity
Health risks from tropical disease exposure and climate
Language barriers and unfamiliar territory
Heightened threat profile for high-profile individuals and delegations

Solace Global Risk mitigates these risks through bespoke journey management plans, close protection teams, and intelligence-led oversight tailored to your itinerary, risk tolerance, and operating environment.
