World-renowned environmentalists, scientists, climate change experts and indigenous groups will meet on 3 October in London to create a roadmap for pioneering, country-led solutions to climate change.

The event, convened by ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ and its implementation partner on regenerative development, the Cloudburst Foundation, will officially launch Common Earth - an international consortium aimed at collectively creating and harnessing strategies to restore the damage caused by climate change and achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Building on ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½â€™s ongoing regenerative development initiative, the conference will look at why strategies which are based on preserving living systems and tailored to specific locations are most effective in addressing climate change; and how to create partnerships that can harness, accelerate and scale-up their impacts. 

Specific aims of the conference include:

• Facilitating the collaboration of different disciplines and projects focused on restorative, regenerative approaches to addressing climate change.
• New and improved partnerships which fill gaps across sectors, fields, industries and communities, and which will encourage broad participation in sustainable ‘blue/green’ economic systems that can improve climate resilience.
• Improved understanding of how to regionally accelerate and scale-up regenerative climate change projects around the world.
• Increased ability to meet the Sustainable Development Goals, Paris Agreement, and Commonwealth Blue Charter commitments.
