RIYADH, Saudi Arabia—Investing in nature-based solutions could create up to 32 million new jobs by 2030. This is according to a new report by the International Labor Organization , the International Union for Conservation of Nature and the UN Environment Programme .
While employment estimates currently focus on NbS for environmental challenges like climate mitigation and biodiversity loss as well as land degradation, there is untapped potential for more “green-grey” infrastructure which integrates both the built and nature-based infrastructure . The report highlights that, while the overall benefits of the green transition are positive, specific groups may face adverse effects on their employment and livelihoods. As the demand for NbS grows, mobilizing additional resources and implementing just transition measures will be essential to ensure broad support for these initiatives.
