From Knowledge to Practice: Advancing Gender-Responsive Nature-Based Climate Solutions
A capacity-building session and community of practice event taking place in Ottawa and on Zoom.
Nature-based climate solutions (NBCS) that conserve, restore, and sustainably use biodiversity and ecosystems hold promise in helping people adapt to the impacts of climate change.
Join us for two consecutive sessions aimed at helping organizations in Canada to advance gender-responsive NBCS for climate change adaptation.
