"We need to re-charge and re-orient our innovation focus and efforts. We need to center our approaches and processes to more humanity & planet centered one’s. We need to go back to more genuine and purpose-driven innovation drawing on more profound participatory models of engagement - from People-with-Nature. Beyond calling for co-creation, we need to inspire and empower citizens to (re)-discover our world, including the endless opportunities that flow from Nature, including Nature-Based Solutions, and contribute to fulfill the promise of an emergent Nature Positive economy"  Américo & Susana
