Open Call for Best Practices - What do investments in nature-based solutions look like?

27 January 2021
State of Finance for Nature

Help us to shape a future that not only acknowledges but demonstrates how investing in nature-based solutions can address the multi-faceted environmental crises and broader societal challenges that affect humanity today.

The purpose of this Open Call is to highlight examples of investment models that could be replicated or scaled-up by others across the globe. Following the IUCN definition, investment in nature-based solutions should be interpreted in a broader sense as capital flows that contribute positively to climate change mitigation, restoration and/or biodiversity conservation.

Please submit your proposal through this form by 31 March 2021. We will group and select content for inclusion in the “State of Finance for Nature” report as submissions come in. By filling the form, you agree that your information will be made public. The working language is English. Should you have any questions, contact Aurelia Blin at blin@un.org.

 

The State of Finance for Nature : Towards a framework to track financing for Nature Based Solutions is a collaborative initiative of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), Economics of Land Degradation (ELD) Initiative hosted by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), and the Tropical Forest Alliance 2020 (TFA) hosted at the World Economic Forum. The Report set to be released in 2021 will provide information about the degree of existing public and private finance that is directed to activities/assets that can be considered nature-based solutions. It will feature practical cases as a means to stimulate replication.
