During the Leaders for Nature Forum of 2015 government, NGO's, corporations and knowledge institutes worked together to find joint solutions for our most pressing natural capital challenges.

IVN is one of active green partners that join Leaders for Nature. This is their challenge:  We challenge you to come up with a proposition to make green interventions part of the Dutch standard healthcare system, specifically for Diabetic patients.
