Natural Capital Singapore - Final Webinar

On the 27th April 2021 we had our final public webinar split into 2 sessions so we could hopefully share our findings around the world:

Session 1: What is Urban Natural Capital – in Singapore and around the world?
Seesion 2: How can information on Natural Capital inform decision making?

197 people registered from approx 23 countries touching every continent except Antarctica. But it seems clear we need to reach out wider beyond academia and government. See our project outputs page for session recordings and slides.
