Opening Plenary: Mobilising Nature and Society to address the Climate Emergency – Setting the Stage

Pourquoi assister à cette session?
Join us as we set the stage for identifying practical pathways through which the global community can mobilise ambitious action on nature to address the climate emergency, including in the aftermath of Covid-19.
HideDescription
Nature is an overlooked ally in addressing the climate emergency. Through participatory, inclusive and cost-effective approaches, Nature-based Solutions – centred on the conservation, restoration and sustainable management of the world’s ecosystems – can be powerfully deployed at scale for climate change mitigation, adaptation and disaster risk reduction. To address the climate crisis effectively across the globe needs the commitment of all societal actors – governments, businesses, women, youth, indigenous peoples, and others. This opening plenary sets the stage for identifying practical pathways through which the global community can mobilise ambitious action on nature and climate in 2021, in the lead up to UNFCCC COP26 in Glasgow, and beyond.
