Faith for Earth Dialogue with Faith Leaders in India

Without clean water, healthy oceans, unpolluted air, fertile soil and rich biodiversity, human wellbeing is threatened. There is an urgent need to redress this balance and for the economy and society at large to reconnect with nature.  Nature Based Solutions are highly relevant and deeper knowledge to lever action in the nature cycle – about its actors, the environmental and social impacts, and associated intervention strategies for a more sustainable future - is required.

Faith leaders and Faith-based organizations (FBO) are key and important players to the UN system. This event will build on the ongoing engagement and strengthen the partnership between UNEP as a global institution and the faith communities in India to inspire actions and engage local actors in a meaningful partnership.

Ms. Joyce Msuya, Assistant Secretary General of UN and Deputy Executive Director of UNEP will be hosting the expert religious panelists in this virtual discussion. The aim is to strengthen the momentum in raising awareness and scale-up Nature-Based solutions in preparations for UNEA 5.
