The series of seminars on nature conservation in development cooperation has been held at the International Academy for Nature Conservation Isle of Vilm since 1999. It is jointly organised by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) and KfW Development Bank on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the International Academy for Nature Conservation, Isle of Vilm, of the German Federal Agency for Nature Conservation (BfN). The seminar "Biodiversity & Development: Delivering nature-positive development pathways" presents an overview and update of the most relevant concepts. The second seminar is devoted to the in-depth consideration of a specific topic identified as being of particular interest. Based on ongoing discussions in international biodiversity policy fora, the Topic "Putting nature on a path to recovery – opportunities and challenges for ecosystem restoration" was chosen for 2025.
