Registrations are open! Choose nature. 

NetworkNature is happy to announce the opening of registrations for the in-person NetworkNature Annual EventChoose nature. Unlocking pathways to a resilient economy for people and the planet”. The event will take place on Tuesday, 16 September 2025 at the Bruxelles Environnement building in Brussels. The event is organised by NetworkNature in collaboration with Brussels Environment.

The event aims to bring together the Nature-based solutions (NbS) community to discuss key concepts around NbS. This edition will explore different ways to align biodiversity and the economy in such times of urgency.

Through pitches and interactive discussions, participants will examine multiple pathways to building a resilient economy that benefits both people and the planet. A broad range of stakeholders from the public and private sectors will share ideas, policies, knowledge, initiatives, and case studies that link nature with economy, innovation, finance and business. The event will also encourage stakeholders to engage with and adopt these approaches.

In parallel to the main event, the exhibition Why Choose Nature? / Why do we care? will invite you and your organisation to explore the diverse (and divergent) reasons why working with nature is essential and why do you care about it.

Curated through this open call, this exhibition will compile a variety of resources, experiences and types of knowledges, all highlighting how nature-based approaches can encourage and build on a wide range of perspectives in relation to nature. This concept is inspired by the IPBES Values Assessment report and aims to contribute to a meaningful exchange during the event. This open call has been developed by NetworkNature in collaboration with the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences SLU (Florence Damiens) and count on the support of Brussels Environment.
