📣 The conclusion of the Taskforce on Nature Markets 🗓️ After an 18-month journey catalysing conversations and guiding action around building nature markets that work for people and the planet, the Taskforce has reached its conclusion. 🟦 Its landmark final report was released in August 2023 at a side event of the Amazon Summit in Brazil. 📑 The report set out 7 recommendations to embed nature and equity goals into global financial activity. 🌐 Despite the sunsetting of the Taskforce, its recommendations continue to be actioned and implemented across NatureFinance. ⬇️ This can be seen particularly with our: 🔹 Collaboration with a coalition of organisations to support Brazil's inaugural G20 bioeconomy initiative, aiming to centre the #bioeconomy within global financial and economic architecture. 🔹 Efforts to shape the governance within emerging biodiversity credit markets as a means to drive finance into nature conservation and restoration. 🔹 Commitment to promoting the inclusion of Indigenous Peoples and local communities (IPLCs) in decision-making processes. 📖 All publications produced by the Taskforce can now be found on the NatureFinance website. ⏩ Keep updated with efforts to shape nature markets here: https://lnkd.in/eimvDcYg 👥 We thank all our members, knowledge partners and the community of practice for contributing to and continuing to advance the important work the Taskforce produced.

Taskforce On Nature Markets

Shaping a new generation of purposeful nature markets that deliver nature-positive and equitable outcomes.
About us
The Taskforce on Nature Markets has been established to shape a new generation of nature markets that deliver nature-positive and equitable outcomes. Why now: Recent developments point to nature becoming more visible and valued across ‘nature markets’ that generate nature-specific revenue streams. Left unchecked, this surge in the monetisation of nature may lead to its further depletion and damage, and yet another round of inequitable outcomes. At this critical phase of development, we have an opportunity to shape purposeful nature markets that recognise the value of nature and its stewards. What: Nature, not economy, must be placed at the heart of nature markets. Our ‘Call to Action’ is for a practical strategy to shape a principles-based approach to the design and governance of nature markets. The Taskforce on Nature Markets is an initiative hosted by NatureFinance and is supported by the MAVA foundation. The Taskforce leadership is drawn from policy, market, technology, civil society and indigenous communities. Learn more: Follow for publications and commentary on #shapingnaturemarkets.

🌍 Governance is key to unlocking nature-positive and equitable results in nature markets, which is vital if they are to work more for people and the planet. 🌿 Nature markets are a broad class of markets that vary dramatically, and so do the governance arrangements associated with them. 📚 Despite this, there are still several widely applicable lessons that can be applied across a diverse range of nature markets. 🏛 These lessons can be combined into a set of building blocks from which the governance of nature markets can be flexibly yet systematically developed. ⬇️ The core building blocks that should be embedded in the governance of nature markets include: 📜 Integrity Principles - Establishing the vision and purpose of nature markets. 📊 Nature Measurement - Including the quality and use of data. 🧮 Capital Accounting - Including the basis on which measures of the state of nature are translated into accounting. 🔍 Transparency and Traceability - Transaction-level and trader transparency and traceability. 🤝 Equity and Respect - Including mechanisms for empowering weaker market actors. 📣 Stakeholder Voices - Including traditional means of involvement for impacted stakeholders. 📝 Business Accountability - Including risk and impact assessment and disclosure requirements. 🧑⚖️ Legal Architecture - Including national and international legal and regulatory developments. 🔏 Purposeful Regulators - Building nature policies and international commitments into regulator mandates. 📗For a breakdown of these governance elements, read our latest recommendations report, ’Making Nature Markets Work’. 🟢 The newly released extended report includes a range of illustrative examples that demonstrate the practical actions that can be taken to embed nature and equity goals into global financial activity. ⏩ Read here: https://lnkd.in/e-cQewXF #Biodiversity #NatureMarkets #MakeNatureMarketsWork
