RT null T1 Submission from Third World Network (TWN) on Nature-based Solutions A1 Third World Network, K1 nature-based solution YR 2023 FD 2023-05 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/42349 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/42349 NO There are many actors, governmental and from Major Groups and Stakeholders, who have raised concerns about nature-based solutions as a key tool to address the climate and biodiversity crises. In this regard, one of the aims of the intergovernmentalconsultations should be to understand these concerns and ensure that all potential risks identified are addressed satisfactorily. These concerns need to inform an assessment of the effects of nature-based solutions, including in the long term. Such an assessment is recognized as necessary in Paragraph 2 of UNEA Resolution 5/5.
