Without sufficient financing, commitments to halt and reverse deforestation and degradation by 2030 will remain mere words on paper. To rapidly close the forest finance gap, we need all hands (and all financial levers) on deck. 🌳 A forthcoming brief from the Forest Declaration Assessment outlines new and innovative finance instruments that are being developed and leveraged to deploy finance to forests across the world. These instruments work by blending finance from different sources, reducing risks for investors, crowding in private finance, and improving access for Indigenous Peoples and local communities. But these innovative instruments – from national forest funds to biodiversity credits and beyond – can’t address the scant forest finance landscape on their own. Stakeholders must align these emerging forest finance instruments with other financial mechanisms, policy measures, and regulatory frameworks to make sure funding for forests is cohesively and rapidly deployed. 💵 Join us for a discussion exploring just that: how we can move beyond siloed interventions and begin integrating innovative forest finance approaches with broader environmental and economic strategies to drive real change for forests. 💻 Webinar: Maximizing the impact of forest finance 📅 Date: Thursday, September 19th 🕒 Time: 9:00 – 10:30 EDT / 15:00 – 16:30 CEST 🔗 Register: https://bit.ly/fdawebinar1
