Facing the growing challenges of the three planetary environmental crises of climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution, Nature-based Solutions (NbS) are powerful tools for resilience and sustainable development. This policy brief developed by UNEP explores how NbS can contribute to peacebuilding and conflict resolution in fragile and conflict-affected areas. Drawing on 40 case studies, expert insights, and research, it highlights how NbS can reduce the risks of violent conflict, build more stable societies, and foster community and environmental resilience.
