Resource description:
Achieving the restoration of freshwater ecosystems at pace and scale depends on the active involvement of many societal groups including a range of economic sectors. We thus need to ‘mainstream’ working with nature across all sectors of society. This brief explores opportunities and challenges to achieve mainstreaming. It highlights a need to strengthen coordination and collaboration between economic sectors and shows how to enable this through existing institutions and approaches.
