The Pavilion features a full week of events showcasing how nature can provide cost-effective, long-term solutions to water security, that provides benefits for food security, climate, health, human displacement, and biodiversity around the world.
WWF8 brings together the world’s leading water experts for discussions around thematic, regional and political 
issues related to water every three years. For the first time ever, some of the leading nature conservation organisations working on freshwater ecosystems have joined together to showcase the power of nature-based solutions. The Nature-Based Solutions Pavilion will stimulate discussions and host workshops, training sessions and talks from global experts to share experiences, tools and successful approaches. The Pavilion is located at E22C in the Expo. The full Pavilion agenda is available here.
