On definitions
• The IUCN definition is good and combines well
with other definitions in the WWF Network (e.g.,
NbS for Climate). Use what works for your
context.
More important than the definitional
aspect is the framing:
• Does the intervention accomplish someone else’s
objective? (enough that they’ll put money behind
it?)
• Does the intervention use some sort of ecosystem
or ecological process to accomplish that objective?
• Does the intervention protect or restore nature
sufficiently that it is worth investing our (WWF)
resources?
How we think about NbS in the Practice?

Our strategy focuses on implementing & financing
large scale NbS
SCIENTIFIC
RIGOUR
Our solutions are
rooted in strong science
that add to the evidence
base in Africa
BUILDING AN
INVESTMENT CASE
01
Our solutions must be
translatable into strong
business cases that
interest the public and
private sector
03
WORKING WITH
PARTNERS
Our focus is to embed
the idea within existing
efforts and mobilize
strategic partners
04
SUSTAINED
IMPACT
To sustain our impact,
we will create a
mechanism to incubate
NbS projects in Africa
05
BUILDING AN
ECONOMIC CASE
Our solutions must
make economic sense
and focus on solving
societal problems
02

1. Protect Kigali city from flooding and improve the
wellbeing of people in town by constructing
urban wetlands
2. Protect Mombasa and other urban centres along
the coast from sea level rise and flooding by
large scale mangrove forests and coastal reefs
3. Ensure energy and water supply to Lusaka and
Kafue town by restoring Lukanga swamps as a
major water sponge
Identifying ambitious cases
These cases are technically sound, economically viable and connect with large scale infrastructure development

Taking the next step
We have a strong technical and economic case
• Our key next step is to examine the detailed mechanisms to finance the cases, moving from theory to
practice.
• Engaging governments and strategic partners in the journey e.g., Global Centre on Adaptation
• Explore new avenues of finance e.g., Islamic Social Finance
• Sharing our work on the global stage at CoP 27

This session provides an overview of the global landscape of climate finance. • Part 1: Global Climate Finance. This section covers the latest figures for global finance. One of the key takeaways is an understanding of the role of public and private sector financing, and the need to justify the use of public funds for any adaptation project, and how participants can do this. o OBJECTIVE 1: Participants be familiar with directions and trends in global adaptation/mitigation finance, so they know what is available now and what may or may not be available in the future. o OBJECTIVE 2: Participants will describe why their project is an appropriate use of public funds. o OBJECTIVE 3: Participants will distinguish which parts of a project are most appropriate for public finance, and which parts are more matched to public-private partnerships or other forms of financing. • Part 2: Modalities, Responsibilities, and What to Look For. This section covers financier access modalities and procedures in detail, including the responsibilities of the various stakeholders (Fund, NIE, EE). o OBJECTIVE 1: Participants will be familiar with the procedures in their country for accessing funds. They will know what steps they need to take and what agencies/representatives to coordinate with in designing the project. • Part 3: Understanding the Financiers. This section focuses specifically on the priorities and evaluation procedures of the ICCTF and other finance sources available to participants. The point of this section is to ensure that the participants are developing proposals that are consistent with the priorities of their chosen financier, and that explicitly make the case that they harmonize with the mission of the financier. o OBJECTIVE 1: Participants will know the eligibility criteria, priorities, and evaluation criteria of the climate fund(s) to which they will apply.

On 17 and 18 June 2020 the EPA held its National Water Event as an online conference. This year's theme was 'Restoring our waters'. This years event was free to attend. It was the EPA's largest water event ever, with over 1250 attending. To everyone who joined us: thanks for attending; thanks for your probing questions; thanks for your passion; thanks for caring about our waters. We can achieve more working together. Special thanks to all our presenters and the team who worked behind the scenes to make sure this years conference happened.

On May 21, 2021, ICLR conducted a Friday Forum webinar titled 'Climate Disclosure, Litigation and Finance'"Climate Disclosure, Litigation and Finance' is a forthcoming chapter in 'Canada in a Changing Climate: National Issues'. In this webinar, chapter authors Paul Kovacs, Gordon McBean, Gordon Beal, Maryam Golnaraghi, Pat Koval and Bohan Li examined the evolving climate risks for businesses and governments. Climate change is now widely regarded as an environmental and an economic issue. While the policy discussion about climate change emphasizes the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to better cope with the impact of extreme events, the business community is increasingly focused on the physical and transition risks and opportunities presented by climate change. The research team will discuss how managing the risks and opportunities associated with climate change affect a company’s ability to access capital, deliver products and services, hire and retain employees and achieve positive financial performance. Paul Kovacs is the Executive Director of the Institute for Catastrophic Loss Reduction. Professor Emeritus Gordon McBean is with the ICLR and Department of Geography and Environment, Western University and the past President of the International Council for Science and former ADM of the atmospheric component of Environment Canada. Gordon Beal, CPA, CA, M.Ed., is the Vice President of Research Guidance and Support for Chartered Professional Accountants Canada and a member of Canada’s National Climate Change Adaptation Platform Plenary. Dr. Maryam Golnaraghi is the Director of Climate Change and Environment at The Geneva Association, a platform of Group CEOs of largest insurance companies, a non-resident senior fellow at The Atlantic Council and serves on a number of boards and advisory councils in the US, Canada and the UK. Patricia Koval, JD, is a Board Director of a number of companies in the United States and Canada, a former partner of a major Canadian law firm, and a member of the Ontario Advisory Panel on Climate Change. Dr. Bohan Li is a research associate at the Institute for Catastrophic Loss Reduction.

Water is critical for meeting commitments of the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Our economies rely on water, with recent estimates putting the economic value of water and freshwater ecosystems at USD 58 trillion - equivalent to 60% of global GDP. At the same time, water related risks are increasing in frequency and scale in the context of climate change. How are investments shaping our economies and societies exposure to water risk? What role can the financial system play in supporting water security? And how can increased understanding of how finance both impacts and depends on water resources spur action towards greater water security? This OECD Green Talks LIVE on Tuesday 14 May 2024 from 15:00 to 16:00 CEST discussed the evolving landscape for assessing water risks to the financial system. OECD Policy Analyst Lylah Davies presented key findings and recommendations from recent OECD work on assessing the financial materiality of water-related risks, including the recently published paper “Watered down? Investigating the financial materiality of water-related risks” and was joined by experts to discuss relevant initiatives underway.

This OECD technical workshop will bring together leading experts on economic, biophysical, and integrated assessment modelling of the interactions between climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution. The workshop will take stock of ongoing modelling efforts to develop quantitative pathways to study the drivers and impacts of the triple planetary crisis, and the policies to address it. The aim is to identify robust modelling approaches to inform the work for the upcoming OECD Environmental Outlook.

The seminar on Problem Formulation for the Risk Assessment of Biopesticides stemmed from a previous CRP-sponsored event on Innovating Microbial Pesticide Testing that identified the need for an overarching guidance document to determine when in vivo tests are necessary. Problem Formulation, a common practice in pesticide risk assessment, was highlighted as a useful approach for addressing uncertainties in data requirements for biopesticides. The seminar featured presentations from various perspectives, including industry, regulatory bodies, and academia. Topics included the history and principles of Problem Formulation, industry perspectives on Problem Formulation and how it is applied internally for microbial pesticides, regulatory approaches, and specific case studies. The seminar provided an overview of the challenges, considerations, and potential solutions in harmonising Problem Formulation for biopesticide risk assessment. It emphasised the need for collaboration and discussion to develop Problem Formulation guidance for biopesticides.
