Description
As coastal communities worldwide face escalating impacts from climate change, this high-level panel will showcase innovative approaches to scaling coastal nature-based solutions that deliver critical natural infrastructure benefits for adaptation. Building on momentum from discussions at the UN Ocean Conference and UNFCCC Ocean and Climate Change Dialogue this June, speakers will highlight pathways for enhanced ocean-climate action at COP 30 and in national climate plans. Using NYCW as a springboard to now take this momentum forward to Belem with the goal of securing investment for a coastal adaptation project in Brazil to be announced at COP30.
