Financing is crucial for scaling up (NbS) nature-based solutions. One of the major challenges for financing NbS is that the benefits derived from projects are difficult to cash in. Organised by members from NetworkNature+ Taskforce 3 on financing and business models for NbS in a Nature-Positive Economy, the event will:
(1) discuss ongoing projects, such as Invest4Nature, C-FAARER, GoNaturePositive, and share emerging concepts and initial findings from the financing of coastal and marine related NbS;
(2) hold a panel dialogue with private sectors, public sectors, institutional investors, business clusters and academics to discuss the challenges and breakthroughs associated with private and blended blue financing for NbS.
