The Evidence for Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Hazard Risk Reduction

Register Here

Climate change is already impacting species, ecosystems, and communities worldwide, challenging traditional approaches to conservation and disaster preparedness. Although numerous adaptation strategies have been proposed and implemented, few have been rigorously tested for effectiveness, leaving practitioners vulnerable to investing in solutions that may not deliver the intended outcomes or, worse, create unintended negative consequences.

Drawing on recent research and case studies, this session will focus on the growing body of evidence supporting nature-based solutions (NbS) as a promising approach to adapt to and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
