Very pleased to share that the WWF-FIDIC - International Federation of Consulting Engineers-AECOM “Playbook for Nature Positive Infrastructure Development” won this year's Nature Positive Award at Environment Analyst Global Global Sustainability Awards 2024!   Congratulations also to WSP for sharing the top prize in this category. This is welcomed recognition for a product that is designed to both inspire and challenge infrastructure practitioners to reimagine how sustainable infrastructure solutions are developed and deployed globally. The Playbook stands alongside a growing catalogue of accessible resources that help demonstrate economically and technically viable approaches to integrating Nature-based and nature-positive solutions into infrastructure design and infrastructure service delivery.   A special thanks to Kate Newman, Graham Pontin, Basma Eissa, Emily Le Cornu, Milica Apostolovic Robert Spencer and many others for the creativity, innovation and steadfast work it has taken to develop the Playbook.  Additional thanks to the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and to USAID for the generous support that enabled the development of this resource. https://lnkd.in/eiKxNWf8
