The EU German Presidency Event on the European Green Deal and Nature-based Solutions (NbS) together with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) organizes the event that objectives are to create continued momentum towards NbS for people, biodiversity and climate and to demonstrate the potential of NbS to address our global challenges. The event will tackle both the internal and external dimensions of the Green Deal, focusing on action by the EU and its Member States, but also looking beyond, into the global agenda.

The virtual dialogue will feature high-level representatives from governments, international organizations, civil society and the finance sector and will be organized into two sessions.

The first will be a high-level panel (15:00 – 16:00 EET) for discussing developments in NbS and their potential in relation to the EU Green Deal and the global context.

The second session (16:00 – 18:00 EET) will feature two technical panels with a focus on implementation challenges and opportunities that arise in these domestic and external dimensions.

Registrations on EventBrite are open until 9/12 at 18:00 CET.

If you would like to register after that date, please send an email to Irene.Velicer@un.org.
