On 9 December on the margins of the 2019 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP25), the UN-REDD Programme, the UN Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the UN University (UNU) held a side-event “Nature-Based Solutions on the Ground (SDG 15): UN Support to People and Landscapes”.

The event, which featured four panels, brought together UN agencies and partners representing indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLCs), the private sector, and youth to demonstrate collaborative actions between agencies, funds and programmes to address climate issues through the lens of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a particular focus on SDG 15 (life on land).
