Overview
The 2026 Hong Kong International Nature-based Solutions (NbS) Action Week is the premier regional gathering dedicated to turning climate theory into urban reality. This brings together global experts and local visionaries to showcase how nature can be the most powerful tool for building resilient, sustainable, and livable cities.
Event highlights:
- Adopting a whole-of-society approach, and exploring how government, the financial sector, businesses, professional bodies, and civil society can collectively translate policy commitments into investable and scalable on-the-ground action across urban, terrestrial, and coastal environments.
- Implementation of NbS projects in urban settings, simultaneously showcasing Hong Kong fs emerging best practices and local cases, while also learning from international NbS experts and exploring opportunities for regional scaling in the GBA and beyond.
- Translating NbS standards and guidelines into on-the-ground action, through integrated land-use planning, climate-resilient infrastructure and conservation project delivery.
- Mobilising finance and market mechanisms to scale NbS, including sustainable regenerative agriculture and aquaculture, and nature-based tourism, demonstrating how NbS can be systematically embedded into urban development, works projects, flood management, with regional scale potential.
