NbS Information Brief
The first step of the NbS Youth Position Statement was to provide accessible information for young people about Nature-based Solutions: what does this term even mean? Who is engaging with it and how? What are the risks and concerns, and what are the potential opportunities?
To do this, GYBN, YOUNGO, and Y4N have co-created an information brief that will serve as a comprehensive, first overview into NbS. This brief, “What are Nature-based Solutions? Risks, concerns, and opportunities” can be accessed below.
We also hosted an open discussion during the IUCN Global Youth Summit on April 15, 2021 to present this brief, answer questions, and host NbS experts to discuss and debate the risks and merits of NbS. This event was recorded, and can be viewed here.
