SUMMARY:Open call: Bust your myth at the NetworkNature Annual Event
DESCRIPTION:Do you want to contribute to the NetworkNature Annual Event thr
 ough your knowledge and experience?\nNetworkNature is looking for common m
 yths encountered by stakeholders in relation to ecosystem restoration and 
 management as well as inspiring solutions busting these myths\, based on e
 xperiences related to Nature-based Solutions.\nAbout the NetworkNature Ann
 ual Event\nThis year’s NetworkNature Annual Event will focus on ‘Bus
 ting myths” in relation to ecosystem restoration and management. This ev
 ent will revolve around myths that NbS practice\, research\, policy making
  and business are busting or that need to be busted to assure transformati
 ve change and reverse biodiversity loss. The concept of Nature-Based Solut
 ions (NbS) and their features will arise from busting the myths\, acknowle
 dging that restoring nature is not a luxury but a necessity and an opportu
 nity that brings many advantages\, including in economic terms\, and highl
 ighting the potential of NbS to identify\, capture and build on synergisti
 c relationships between nature and people.. When shifting from a conventio
 nal approach to Nature-based solutions\, it is necessary to challenge long
 -held beliefs about how people and nature work together.\n\nRead more abou
 t the Annual Event here.\nHow can you contribute?\nThis is where you come
  in! We invite you to propose your own myth to bust building on successfu
 l inspiring experiences related to Nature-based solutions. The audience\, 
 including policy-makers\, local authorities\, researchers\, innovators\, l
 and planners and managers\, investors and businesses\, educators\, artists
  and society at large will be challenged by different presentations. These
  will debunk pre-conceived notions regarding the restoration\, conservatio
 n\, protection\, management\, and use of land and seas\, not only focusing
  on regenerating nature actions but also on nature governance and policy\,
  and economy and valuation.\n\nWhat are the pre-conceived notions that you
  are debunking with your work in relation to NbS? How have NbS contributed
  to shift your view on how ecosystems should be protected\, conserved\, re
 stored\, used or managed? Which stakeholders need to bust their own myths 
 on their area to unlock the uptake of NbS?\n\nFill in this short form to
  propose your myth and ways to bust it (by 20th June).\n\nFind out more ab
 out the general conditions for this open-call and an example of a relevant
  proposal here.\n\nBy filling in the form\, you can propose yourself (or 
 someone else) as a potential speaker during the NetworkNature Annual Event
 \, to dive into the myth you have encountered\, the solution you propose\,
  and the opportunities arising from NbS in that context.\n\nJoin us in per
 son in Brussels on September 25th for a day of enlightening and challengi
 ng discussions\, presentations and interactive activities to reshape our u
 nderstanding of how people and nature can work together.
