Wageningen University & Research: Finding Nature-Based Solutions together – Road to CAS webinar
Channel: CAS TV
Date: 26/10/2020

Nature-Based Solutions such as wetland restoration, river restoration, mangroves, grasslands, forests, and greening cities offer large potential to contribute to climate mitigation and to create resilience for the impact of climate change.

Wageningen University & Research (WUR) together with partners study the potential of Nature-Based Solutions for climate action in order to provide the evidence required for large scale implementation of nature-based solutions.

In this session, they present and discuss the latest insights regarding the value of nature for adaptation and what is needed to embed Nature-Based Solutions into planning and policy for large-scale implementation globally. Topics discussed include coastal protection, resilient food systems, and cities.

With: Reinier Hille Ris Lambers & Tim van Hattum (WUR), Martin Baptist (Wageningen Marine Research), Annemarie Groot (Wageningen Environmental Research), Sabine van Rooij (Nature-Based Solutions), Coenraad Krijger & Romie Goedicke (IUCN NL), Jacqueline Duiker (VBDO), Sacha Stolp (Amsterdam).

CAS 2021: Accelerating Adaptation Action
Our planet is getting warmer, with growing impact on our societies and economies. The need to adapt to new climate extremes is driving actions that connect challenges with solutions.

At the online international Climate Adaptation Summit 2021 in January, hosted by the Netherlands, global leaders launched a comprehensive Adaptation Action Agenda, with clear commitments to deliver concrete new endeavours and partnerships to make our world more resilient to the effects of climate change.

Over the course of 24 hours, a range of online events from all time zones inspired change and supported tangible solutions to the problems of a warming world, showing how we can achieve a climate-resilient future.
