Empowering Communities for Biodiversity
Exploring System Mapping and Leverage Points for Transformative Change
Who needs to be convinced that children with disabilities should have opportunities to connect with nature and experience its closeness? Can a local chef, a religious leader, or a school principal play a key role in preserving biodiversity? Can Amazonian Indigenous communities influence the ecological footprint of Europeans? What could replace fast fashion if we want to protect the planet?
These questions were among those explored by participants of the PLANET4B case studies throughout 2024. Through intensive workshops employing creative, arts-based, and deliberative methods, the participants worked to identify intervention points and define action areas within their respective research fields (such as the fashion industry, financial investments, global soy and beef trade, education, and agrobiodiversity) to prioritise biodiversity for a more sustainable future.
