Carbon & biodiversity finance that supports community rights: Unpacking the ingredients for lasting impact at scale

Time: 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm  BST

Co-hosts: Fauna & Flora, Forest People Partnership, Natural Climate Solutions Alliance

Description

In a world where more and more people and communities are facing migration and disconnection from friends and family, ancestral territories, land and homes – rights to land and resources, and to live resiliently and well, are more important than ever. Natural Climate Solutions provide a significant opportunity to invest in and support Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPs and LCs) on the frontline of nature-based climate action. Yet there are also risks, and getting it right is hard.

This event is looking at what tools exist to strengthen community rights and positive outcomes for people in different contexts, and what role carbon and biodiversity finance can – and needs – to play to help get it right.  The event will feature key note presentations profiling case studies from the UK, Liberia, Nepal and Latin America, followed by an interactive panel discussion.
