The Natural Capital Initiative is initiating and facilitating dialogue between key academic, policy and business decision-makers to find shared solutions and approaches.
Future events
Quarterly NCI Dialogues are small, topic-focused workshops or breakfast briefings that are often held in partnership with other initiatives and organisations. Dialogue sessions bring together experts from academia, policy and business, to identify shared solutions and promote interdisciplinary approaches, and feed in to the Valuing our Life Support System Summits.
