The IFB Programme co-hosted the Financing an Environment for Wales Leaders' Summit in Newtown, Powys yesterday. Dr Hannah Rudman and Julia McCarthy worked closely with Natural Resources Wales, the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales, and the Ecosystems Knowledge Network (EKN) to design an imaginative and highly effective programme that gave space for productive and inclusive discussion, and encouraged networking for the broad range of stakeholders who attended.

In the afternoon session, Hannah shared IFB's work and findings in Scotland, and explored how the approaches used there might be adapted to benefit the Welsh landscape.
Details of the event are available on the EKN website.
A Summit Concord is being drafted and will be available soon.
