Describe the results/achievements of the activities
• On fundraising and study: funds from AFD and the Government of Netherlands have been raised to launch a study on "Agroecological approaches as nature-based solutions"", in collaboration between IUCN HQ agriculture team and the regional EURO Office, this includes the development of specific case-studies to show how to consider NBS in agriculture. Publication expected before end 2023.
• The next IUCN flagship report will focus on "Conservation and agriculture", and will include a section on the costs and benefits of the transition to sustainable agriculture. Publication expected before end 2024.
• On dissemination and implementation of NBS/agroecological practices: funds from AFD, IKEA Foundation and Pernod-Ricard have been raised for encouraging the development of agroecological projects in 6 countries: India, Vietnam, Rwanda, Tanzania, Burkina-Faso and Guatemala. In these countries, the agriculture guidance for the NBS Global standard will be tested throughout 2023.
• Common Ground dialogues will take place across 2023 in the 6 pilot countries. Increased communication.
• IUCN EURO office is contributing to the framing of the Common agriculture policy, Farm to fork and biodiversity strategies, conducting studies on NBS and biodiversity indicators and facilitating dialogues with different partners on sustainable agriculture.
• Japan, Switzerland and France have put agroecology at the centre of their agriculture policy.
• INRAE, IRD and CIRAD are actively developing applied research on agroecology in France and in partner countries.
• IUCN French Committee is developing a set of actions that contribute to deliver the resolution, and particularly a multi-stakeholder reflection on NbS for food security.
• The coalition clean baltic is developing actions in Nordic countries.

Challenges/obstacles encountered in the implementation of this Resolution and measures taken
• IUCN capacities on NbS and sustainable agriculture are still limited despite the ongoing collaborations in the 6 pilot countries .
• Stock-taking on IUCN NbS related projects in agriculture is still low.
• Within IUCN Membership, agriculture is still a sensitive topic and many do not yet see the value to engage constructively in this sector to reframe agriculture as part of the solution.
• Increased efforts are necessary to create synergies and mobilize IUCN Commissions and Members, including to gain a better sense of their contribution to the implementation of the resolution.
