As the Rio Conventions on climate change, biodiversity, and desertification converge, this session will spotlight the critical role of faith communities in ecosystem restoration. With the UN CCD leading efforts to engage faith leaders, panellists will discuss the importance of aligning advocacy across the Rio Conventions, share global insights on faith-led restoration initiatives, and explore how restoring ecosystems can simultaneously address climate change and biodiversity loss.
