Nature-based solutions to climate change: helping people, the environment, and the planet

06/11/2021 @ 8:05 am - 9:00 am UTC

Host: The Government of Australia

 

Facilitator: Australia’s Ambassador for the Environment, Mr Jamie Isbister

Australia is expanding its support for nature-based solutions to climate change. Investing in ecosystems such as forests and mangroves is critical in addressing the world’s climate change mitigation and adaptation challenges. Our global blue carbon initiatives are already building momentum.

The launch of Australia’s new Climate Resilient by Nature program and Blue Carbon Accelerator Fund are opportunities to bring together governments, NGOs, private investors, researchers and international organisations and accelerate action on biodiversity, sustainable livelihoods, community resilience and climate change.

 Speakers:

  • Australian Minister for the Environment, the Hon. Sussan Ley
  • Australia’s Ambassador for the Environment, Mr Jamie Isbister
  • PNG’s Minister for Environment, Conservation and Climate Change, the Hon. Wera Mori
  • WWF’s Global Leader of Climate & Energy, Mr Manuel Pulgar-Vidal
