The UN Climate conference this week is a key moment as governments approach the 2020 deadline of revising and enhancing their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement. Climate targets cannot be met without the protection, restoration, and sustainable use of nature and biodiversity.

This pathway provides a seven-step approach and framework for national governments to identify potential nature-based solutions with the aim of enhancing their climate mitigation and adaptation action in a cost-effective manner and with multiple co-benefits.
