Why choose nature? / Why do we care? Open call
Whether you are an individual, a collective or part of an organisation — from any backgrounds and sectors— you are invited to share your reasons for placing nature as a first priority. This is your opportunity to present your ideas and work and help create a mosaic of motivations to choose and care for nature, building on the different resources, materials, knowledge and experiences you or your organisation might have.
The NetworkNature Annual Event will gather a diverse audience of stakeholders eager to share their perspectives. Selected contributions will not only be featured in the exhibition but also included in a special NetworkNature report, and shared via NetworkNature's social media channels. These will also help disseminate relevant ideas and material across the network. The open call is open to everyone. We foresee an increased participation from key stakeholder groups (See below). The submission process is simple and is expected to take no more than one hour.
Find out more about the general conditions for the open call and a preview of what your contribution will look like here.

About NetworkNature Annual Event
Organised by Network Nature in collaboration with Brussels Environment, this year’s NetworkNature Annual Event 2025 “Choose Nature” will explore different ways to align biodiversity and economy in times of urgency, building on the concept of Nature-based Solutions. We will hear from a broad range of stakeholders, from the public and private sectors, examine diverse ideas, exchange knowledge, explore initiatives and share case studies that link nature with economy, innovation, finance and business. Through pitches and discussions, we will delve into pathways to build a resilient economy that benefits both people and planet. The event will also encourage stakeholders to engage with and adopt these approaches.
