Current work
Nicola's work focuses on supporting IIED’s strategy to promote a nature-climate-development triple agenda in international policy forums and ensure these interlinked issues are addressed coherently; advocating for locally-led action for nature, climate and development and working to generate ambition to scale up locally led action; and co-leading work on nature finance, including analysis of how much public funding for nature reaches the local level and chairing IIED’s internal working group on nature finance.
