Join us for a compelling discussion and exploration of the profound impact of nature-based solutions in shaping a sustainable, resilient, and low-carbon future in tropical Asia. Featuring bilateral and regional success stories, this event will highlight remarkable achievements resulting from collaborative efforts with partner countries in meeting their Paris Agreement and other international commitments. Through these partnerships, over $1.5 billion has been mobilized in public and private finance, driving the successful implementation of nature-based solutions. The impact is evident in the reduction of hundreds of millions of tons of greenhouse gas emissions in land use sectors and the improved management of millions of hectares of land. This event invites thought leaders, policymakers, and environmental enthusiasts to delve into the dynamic and inspiring realm of nature-based solutions.

Opening remarks: Éliane Ubalijoro, CEO, CIFOR-ICRAF
