A brief introduction to the IUCN standard for Nature Based Solutions will be followed by three European projects that explore the potential of ecosystem services to improve the protection of Mediterranean forests’ biodiversity.
With Teresa Baiges Zapater (Catalonian Government), Lucio Brotto (ETIFOR) and Gabriel Gutiérrez (Andalusian Government), we will explore successful and innovative examples about the potential of valuing ecosystem services. Gain insights on how to reach public and private partnerships and identify additional incentives to protect forests and provide supplementary support for forest managers.
These webinars offer the opportunity to explore the key issues for research, policy and practice in the weeks leading up to 8th Mediterranean Forest Week. Through the webinars, pertinent points of discussion will be identified for subsequent debate during the 8MFW.
This is your opportunity to join the discussion about forest adaptation, biodiversity, wildfires, and green cities, in the context of the week’s global theme on sustainable and resilient Mediterranean forests.
The 8MFW will start where the webinars leave off: outputs from the webinars will be used, together with the results of the discussion during the plenary sessions and the content of the presented posters, to feed into the High-Level Segment on day 4 of the conference.
