Fabienne Michaux, Director, UNDP SDG Impact was invited to speak at the Nature Taskforce Panel Discussion at theV20 Summit in Bali.

Fabienne highlights that the environment, human and economic elements are all interconnected as demonstrated by climate change, COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing conflicts across the globe. She emphasizes that, “humans are not above nature, but are a part of nature.”

Finally, Fabienne emphasizes the need to place values that create a level-playing field at the centre of decision-making for businesses and investors. Doing so will encourage an enabling environment to change the behaviours to ensure a holistic view of the SDGs and a more resilient future.
