GLOBAL YOUTH NATURE-BASED POSITION STATEMENT ON SOLUTIONS

Global Youth Biodiversity Network / Official Youth Constituency of the UNFCC / Youth4Nature

This statement represents the first-ever, globally representative and collectively crafted position from young people on “Nature-based Solutions”. We are addressing decision-makers and key stakeholders, to present our own views, priorities, and demands from the NbS conversation which, until now, has excluded us from the narrative. The content of this statement reflects the consultation efforts by the Global Youth Biodiversity Network, YOUNGO, and Youth4Nature1, and is backed by the knowledge and perspectives of more than 1,000 youth2 from 118 countries that have participated in our online survey, which was conducted in Spanish, French, and English.
