Nature in 2035 NDCs: Catalyzing Synergistic Action for Nature

The event will showcase the best examples of ambition in increasing the potential contribution of nature-based solutions to 2035 NDC targets as well as NDCs aligned with NBSAPs. Further, the speakers will discuss the scientific and economic rationale behind this alignment, as well as how countries can transition into converting NDC commitments into investment on the ground, that is synergistic with biodiversity, land, and sustainable development goals.

The first segment will feature a presentation on global insights on the state of 2035 NDCs, as it relates to increased ambition in nature-based solutions, alignment with the NBSAPs, and compliance with GST guidance. The presentation will be followed by a panel of country representatives who will highlight how they plan to harness nature as a climate solution in the implementation of their climate strategies – across mitigation, adaptation, loss & damage, and access to climate finance – as well as examples of inclusive and nature-positive climate action.
