June 12, 2024 / 08:30 – 08:45
Samantha Cheng is Director of Conservation Evidence at World Wildlife Fund.
Key messages:
Systematic mapping of the evidence on climate solutions is critical for efficient synthesis efforts, the identification of evidence gaps as well as efficiently allocating scarce research funding resources
The evidence base for NbIs is significant and growing – with the majority assessing the relationship NBS and proxy outcomes of climate change mitigation.
Key gaps in knowledge hamper the ability to inform ongoing and future investment and implementation at scale.
