We need and only need nature-based solutions that truly put people and nature in focus. Ahead of UNCBD COP16, UNFCCC COP29, and UNCCD COP16, find out where we are feeling optimistic and where we see concern for NbS as it continues to take centre stage with states and decision makers, the private sector, and civil society.
A Unified Youth Voice on Nature-based Solutions
The lack of a universally agreed upon definition of Nature-based Solutions, and the stemming concerns about human rights and missing biodiversity safeguards, are gaining traction.

The work starts today.
