Nature-based Solutions (NbS) aim to enhance nature to tackle pressing challenges like climate change and biodiversity loss. Across the globe, Indigenous Peoples are leading NbS (i.e., Indigenous-led NbS) such as Indigenous Protected Conserved Areas and Indigenous Guardians programs. Previous studies have explored their potential environmental outcomes.
This study builds on these studies to understand how government financial support to Indigenous-led NbS influences carbon storage in plants and soil and biodiversity conservation. The authors focus on Canada as it offers valuable insights about the ways substantial government support may influence Indigenous-led NbS.
