About this event
As a comprehensive means for mitigation and adaptation and guided by the idea of ecological civilization and harmony between human and nature, Nature-based Solutions (NBS) seeks to effectively cope with climate change and achieve related Sustainable Development Goals by fostering a development pattern based on respect for nature and green development, by following nature’s ways and preserving nature. The 2019 Climate Action Summit will further enhance the awareness of the NBS, so that the governments, financial institutions, business, and all the other stakeholders will prioritize Nature-Based Solutions to address the climate crisis and to deliver concrete and credible actions, to make common efforts on an ambitious, implementable, win-win, and with wide participation outcome.
With the theme of Nature-based Solutions in China: Best Practices and the Way Forward, the workshop aims to share China’s NBS stories including best practices and priority actions, to enhance the discussion on related issues, so as to better promote the development of NBS in the future.
