Let’s talk about: Nature’s Recipe: the Water-Biodiversity-Food nexus

From Waterproof Podcast to live meet-up

Biodiversity is vital to life on Earth, yet current water and food systems drive its decline—food production alone causes 70% of land-based biodiversity loss. How can we turn this around? Join the Waterproof meet-up to explore solutions, share insights, and discuss how integrating biodiversity strengthens ecosystems, food resilience, and economies. Your perspective is key—don’t just listen, be part of the change!
