On the margins of the United Nations Environment Assembly, faith actors renew their commitment to nature for a harmonious future.

In a dynamic two-week forum of thematic discourses from - nature-based solutions, the work of national action teams, to environmental ethics - the Faith for Earth Dialogue shares the experiences of faith actors ranging in religious and spiritual tradition alongside the United Nations Environment Assembly, the highest global authority responsible for the environmental component of sustainable development.

From 21 February to 4 March 2022, UNEP Faith for Earth co-organised a series of 24 sessions, collaborating with 94 faith-based organisations (FBOs) that drew together 650 registered participants representing a variety of stakeholders from approximately 53 religions and spiritual practices.

Watch the statement below made during the Closing Plenary of UNEA 5.2.
