Despite growing recognition that climate change and biodiversity loss are highly interlinked, policy efforts addressing both crises in an integrated manner remain limited. With UNFCCC COP27 and CBD COP15 around the corner, how can synergies between the climate and biodiversity agendas be used to their full effect? How can we support integrated policy design and implementation – at global, national and local levels?
Join us for the launch of the thematic paper series „Synergies Between Biodiversity and Climate Policy Frameworks” by GIZ, IISD and UFZ to discuss these questions:
Thursday, 20th October 2022
4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. (CEST)
The meeting will be held on Microsoft Teams (JOIN HERE)
After showcasing the publication’s key findings, we look forward to an engaging Q&A with the audience. A preliminary agenda is provided below.
