A human rights-based approach (HRBA) is essential to address the complexities of biodiversity and climate challenges, recognising that these challenges have disproportionate impacts on people living in vulnerable situations. There are several key opportunities to guide more ambitious national actions that address climate change and biodiversity loss in an integrated manner, reduce harm, as well as ensure fairness and justice for all. These opportunities are present in policy processes such as the final round of the Intergovernmental Consultations on Nature-based Solutions under the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) auspices, the negotiations of the Biodiversity and Climate Change agenda resuming under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) during the 25th meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice (SBSTTA 25), and the forthcoming climate and biodiversity Conference of the Parties - UNFCCC COP28 and CBD COP16. The diverse case studies in this publication demonstrate how adopting a HRBA for climate and biodiversity action can lead to more successful and sustainable outcomes in achieving the goal of living in harmony with nature.
