D3: Interactive panel

Tackling challenges head on

What works, what doesn’t and why? Expect a lively discussion to help identify the weak links in the decision-making process and ask whether we are doing enough to mitigate risks such as asset grabbing. It is essential for the success of natural capital approaches that governments play an active leadership role, creating a policy framework that represents the interests of all stakeholders. Is progress happening quickly enough and what can be done by all stakeholders to ensure positive outcomes?
