From 27 September to 1 October 2021, UNU-EHS and Munich Re Foundation, in collaboration with the UN Climate Change Secretariat (UNFCCC), will be hosting the 2021 “People’s Pathways to Climate Action – Climate Academy.” The academy will bring together more than 25 experts and emerging change makers from around the world to tackle information gaps around nature-based solutions and their application in urban areas to reduce vulnerability to climate change. In this context, a series of webinars will be conducted, which are open to the public (view flyer here).
The sessions will center around the question: What do decision makers in policy and
communities of practice need to know about nature-based solutions to effectively reduce urban
vulnerabilities?
The programme will specifically focus on three complementary approaches to understand the relationship between nature-based solutions and urban vulnerabilities:
