In December 2024, the IPBES Plenary approved the new IPBES Nexus assessment: it addresses the interlinkages among biodiversity, water, food and health. It also explores response options that address several of these areas and their challenges simultaneously.
Like every IPBES assessment, the Nexus assessment followed a rigorous approach to include Indigenous and local knowledge.
As a result, the assessment explores the ways in which Indigenous Peoples and local communities conceptualise the nexus and interlinkages within nature. It further includes the important role of their knowledge and actions in understanding, managing and governing these interlinkages.
In this webinar, assessment authors and Indigenous Peoples and local communities will reflect on the findings of the assessment, ways forward and next steps.
