The IUCN Leaders Forum series convenes global leaders from national and subnational governments, corporate executives, heads of international organisations, Indigenous and youth leaders to discuss hard-to-solve issues around nature and climate.
The Leaders Forum focuses on priorities of the international agenda, in particular the global goals and targets agreed in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
The events include a strong networking component and “by invitation only” meetings, in addition to the Leaders Dialogues. This enables leaders in their respective capacities to discuss road maps, propose concrete actions, establish coalitions, and make informed decisions. With cross-cutting design and varied stakeholders, IUCN Leaders Forum events foster a unique platform for debate and consensus-building.
