As we confront the critical challenges of climate change, pollution, biodiversity loss, land degradation and sustainability, Nature-based Solutions (NbS) offer a powerful approach to address these interconnected crises. The 11th ESP World Conference in Darwin will explore pathways to NbS, with a special focus on the insights that local and Indigenous peoples and their value systems can offer.

At this international conference, we will bridge global and local scales, learning from managing Australia’s and the wider Asia-Pacific ecosystems to inspire solutions worldwide, linking science with policy. How do we draw on local communities and Indigenous ecological knowledge and values to shape pathways that are sustainable, inclusive, and effective? What lessons from the Down Under land can we apply to other regions seeking to live in harmony with nature?

We invite the global ecosystem services community to join us in Darwin for this inspiring and motivating conversation.
