To help achieve KMGBF targets, regional governments should:

1. Build institutional capacity – Equip agencies to design, finance, and implement NbS.
2. Identify bankable projects – Assess which NbS have revenue potential and where public investment or incentives are needed.
3. Strengthen partnerships – Collaborate with scientific institutions, the private sector, and insurers to integrate NbS into planning and risk reduction.
4. Localise solutions – Use native species, local expertise, and Indigenous Peoples’ and Local Communities’ (IPLCs) knowledge.
5. Prioritise prevention – Focus on ex-ante risk reduction through ecosystem restoration.
6. Use existing guidance – Apply the IUCN Global Standard for NbS and frameworks such as UNEP’s “State of Finance for Nature” to support implementation.
