On 10 October, we will discuss Nature 2000 in Lombardy and the contribution of Gestire 2020 to the conservation of protected areas and ecological connectivity in the morning. This session sets the ground for the rest of the workshops and is open to all participants.
In the afternoon there will be a plenary session introducing the Alpine context and the Crossroads Biodiversity Message – throughout the workshop, the participants will elaborate this document. There will be parallel sessions on biodiversity governance with a focus on the EU Nature Restoration Law, conservation, restoration and monitoring, also encompassing the key topics of nature-based solutions and the contribution of business to nature.
On 11 October, the workshop will continue during the morning in plenary with more discussions, a synthesis of the outcomes of the parallel sessions of the previous day, the sharing of ideas for future cooperation, and the finalisation of the participants' message on 'Crossroads to Biodiversity'.
The workshop offers a unique opportunity for exchange, learning, and cooperation between some of the key Alpine and European players regarding biodiversity.
This workshop is being organised as an official side event of the European Business and Nature Summit 2023 taking place in Milan on 11-12 October 2023.
