Climate change, biodiversity loss, and poverty are inter-related crises that require integrated responses at scale. In this session, we will share perspectives from policymakers, experts and practitioners implementing the Government of Canada’s Partnering for Climate Initiative. The event will include a moderated panel with discussants sharing perspectives on tools and approaches for integrating inclusive nature-based solutions that are centered on gender equality and social inclusion, biodiversity conservation, and climate adaptation. The session will include a Q/A period. Discussants include Global Affairs Canada and its partners in the Partnering for Climate Initiative, including IISD, IUCN and other partners.
