Side events during COP15
Thursday, December 8: Exploring nature-positive pathways
Timings: 06.15pm (Montreal time - UTC-5) / 12.15am (Paris time - UTC+1)
Location: IGOs room
Organized by: PBL (Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency) | ICLEI | CAPITALSCOALITION | IPSI | IDDRI
With Juliette Landry (panellist) and Sébastien Treyer (moderator) for IDDRI
This side event presents the results of a new PBL report “Exploring nature positive pathways” that takes the whole of society approach as starting point. The report sees the many societal initiatives that are emerging as seeds of transformative change and non-state and sub-national actors as (new and) important agents of change. The report asks the question how to bend the curve for biodiversity in three configurations of non-state, sub-national and state actors: rural landscapes, supply chains, and cities.
The side event will discuss the findings of the report with representatives from cities (ICLEI), business (Capitals Coalition) and landscape-initiatives (Satoyama). A presentation on the report will be followed by a panel discussion and discussion with the audience.
