Professor Fiona Nunan explains why we need to put people at the centre of nature-based solutions rather than let private companies be in change - which often leads to fake action such as 'greenwashing'. Instead, she demonstrates why people living in or close to ecosystems are best able to protect, restore and manage nature. The importance of nature is often overlooked and so is the vital role of indigenous people for the future of our planet. Dr Fiona Nunan is a Professor of Environment and Development at the University of Birmingham. Her interests and experience focus on natural resource governance and management in developing country settings, particularly within inland fisheries and coastal locations in East and Southern Africa, and on exploring the links between poverty and the environment. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
