Innovative Conservation Finance Initiatives Spearheading Closing the Biodiversity Funding Gap


Big Room

Reception, led by the Pew Charitable Trusts, will allow to hear from and network with leading groups working to close the biodiversity funding gap through innovative conservation finance.

This reception will celebrate innovative conservation finance initiatives that are helping countries to finance efforts to reach Target 3 (“30 by 30”) under the GBF. It will feature the launch of a new Coalition on Debt for Nature Swaps between Conservation International, The Nature Conservancy, The Pew Charitable Trusts, Re:wild, the World Wildlife Fund, the Wildlife Conservation Society and ZOMALAB, which aims to generate billions of dollars for conservation; as well as financing work underway through Pew Bertarelli Ocean Legacy, the Blue Nature Alliance, and Enduring Earth.
