AIIB: Define nature as infrastructure for climate resilience

AMID accelerating climate change, the increasing value of carbon capture and the degradation of biodiversity globally, the concept of "Nature as Infrastructure" arrives at a pivotal moment. It mitigates the impact of human development on nature. It includes direct investments in nature assets to sustain critical infrastructure-like services and integrates nature-based solutions into infrastructure design to enhance climate resilience.

The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) launched its report titled "Nature as Infrastructure" with a panel discussion at its COP28 pavilion.
