Situation
At BFH-HAFL, we are the service provider for the Wyss Academy Dialogues with Purpose (WAD). Our role is to synthesize insights from four regional dialogues on the value of forests, creating a cohesive and actionable narrative. These dialogues focus on the intersections of biodiversity, climate change, and land use, promoting equitable nature-people relationships. By exploring the true value of forests and integrating them into mainstream markets and policies, we aim to foster sustainable development and transformative socio-environmental change. Our work culminates in a comprehensive agenda for the final global WAD, ensuring informed and strategic actions for environmental stewardship.
