Registrations are open! Choose nature.
NetworkNature is happy to announce the opening of registrations for the in-person NetworkNature Annual Event “Choose nature. Unlocking pathways to a resilient economy for people and the planet”. The event will take place on Tuesday, 16 September 2025 at the Bruxelles Environnement building in Brussels. The event is organised by NetworkNature in collaboration with Brussels Environment.
The event aims to bring together the Nature-based solutions (NbS) community to discuss key concepts around NbS. This edition will explore different ways to align biodiversity and the economy in such times of urgency.
Through pitches and interactive discussions, participants will examine multiple pathways to building a resilient economy that benefits both people and the planet. A broad range of stakeholders from the public and private sectors will share ideas, policies, knowledge, initiatives, and case studies that link nature with economy, innovation, finance and business. The event will also encourage stakeholders to engage with and adopt these approaches.
Complementing the main event, the exhibition Why Choose Nature? will invite you to explore the diverse (and divergent) reasons why working with nature is essential for people and the planet. Curated through an open call, this exhibition will compile different resources showcasing how nature-based approaches can drive a wide range of values and positions in relation to nature. Additionally, NetworkNature will officially launch the NbS Business Forum and offer a space to showcase diverse nature-based business models, curated via an open call.
NetworkNature invites policymakers, local authorities, researchers, innovators, land planners and managers, investors and businesses, educators, artists, and society at large to join us for this event!
