By showcasing successful local restoration cases from cities participating in the Generation Restoration Project under the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, the event aims to highlight best practices, challenges, and the essential role of cities to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity by 2030, as well as achieve water security, climate resilience, strengthen livelihoods and increase the wellbeing of urban populations.
