Join us on 15 February 2024, as part of the CITIES TALK NATURE: Business Insights series, as we hear companies discuss their experiences of standards and certification in nature-based solutions markets in Norway. In particular, we’ll be learning about standards and certification for urban trees, as well as for property developments that are nature and climate friendly.
In this webinar, we will answer the following questions:
- What role do norms, standards and/or certifications play in the public procurement of nature-based solutions projects?
- What role do norms, standards and/or certifications play in the design of biodiversity and ecosystem services of nature-based solutions projects?
- What role do EU sustainability reporting requirements play in nature-based solutions market creation in Norway?
