Strong environmental sustainability and international commitments: setting the right targets to preserve ecosystems

We desperately need a framework of environmental standards to define the ‘safe operating space’ for humanity. Strong sustainability can help us defining such a framework. Easily the most difficult is the standard for biodiversity, but standards are also needed for pollution of ecosystems, overexploitation of resources and other anthropogenic pressures. Existing frameworks (and in particular international agreements or environmental standards) provide usable benchmarks for measuring countries' progress towards sustainability, but they are not appropriate in all countries.

Speakers will discuss how to define relevant and effective targets to monitor and implement national commitments towards environmental sustainability.  

The webinar will be held in English.
