People with disabilities (PWDs) are an intersectional population, with a range of disability types, that are present in every other group regardless of race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, or other identity. PWDs are also marginalized across social, economic, and environmental spheres – and especially in the many dangers of the climate emergency. This presentation will explain the vulnerabilities and dangers that the disability community faces, and adaptive actions we can take to protect their safety and well-being.
As the main instrument for implementing the Convention on Biological Diversity, National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs) are seen as a key framework for mainstreaming considerations for wildlife and nature for nations — but can these frameworks easily scale to the city or county level? In Part 2, with a focus on U.S. action, ICLEI Cities Biodiversity Center is joined by Biophilic Cities, Sustainable Development Code, and city staff to show you how to utilize development codes, departmental policies, and other avenues to mainstream nature considerations into planning.

HARNESS the power of the ICLEI Network!" Governments need to give (the sense of) direction, as Business leaders we don't make the wind, we sail the boats. So policy should set the winds in the right directions if you want the boat going fast to the right harbor."Philippe JoubertSenior Advisor, World Business Council on Sustainable Development
