GIZ, IUCN, IIED and FEBA invited around 55 delegates and representatives from governments, international organizations, NGOs and research to share knowledge and practical experiences for strengthening EbA into policy frameworks based on practical examples. Felix Ries (Programme Office of BMUB’s International Climate Initiative) opened the event by focusing on two main points, communicating the benefits of ecosystem-based approaches and developing financing strategies. During a short panel discussion moderated by Ali Raza Rizvi, speakers from UN-Environment, Government of Mexico, Oxford University and The Nature Conservancy Micronesia provided insights and practical experiences for demonstrating EbA benefits and financing options. A marketplace session – including seven concrete examples and tools from IUCN, IIED, GIZ, RARE, DIE, FEBA and PANORAMA, for assessing, communicating and sharing EbA benefits – served as a platform for further knowledge exchange among participants.
