Resilient Landscapes

🌿 What a Powerful Discussion on Nature-Based Solutions! 🌍 Today’s session was a testament to the potential of collaboration, science, and community in driving real change. Together with Luxembourg’s Ministry of the Environment, Climate, and Biodiversity, we explored how the Resilient Landscapes Luxembourg (RLL) initiative is accelerating investments in sustainable landscapes for climate action. 💬 Here’s what stood out from our rich conversations: - H.E. Serge Wilmes reminded us that using public money wisely and building partnerships with private investors is essential to creating bankable, high-impact projects. It’s about turning resources into results. - Nitin Sukh emphasized how the RLL incubator is breaking new ground by bringing together scientific expertise and private capital to scale Nature-based Solutions (NbS). We’re not just solving problems—we’re learning from each other along the way. - He also shared a key lesson: relationships with communities are everything. Success relies on trust, and the social capital we’ve built is as vital as the financial capital we’re leveraging. - Jane Feehan brought us back to the spirit of Rio, showing how modest yet strategic investments can deliver big results when we align biodiversity, climate, and desertification goals. - And, most importantly, science is our foundation. As Jane put it, science isn’t just a guide—it’s a de-risker, ensuring projects are impactful and measurable. 🌟 What we’ve seen today is inspiring: from the first Resilient Landscapes Luxembourg incubation cycle to the collaborations forming between public and private sectors, the opportunities are immense. Together, we’re setting the stage for sustainable landscapes that deliver environmental and social benefits. 💡 Want to dive deeper into the session’s discussions? Check the link in the comments!
