Scaling Nature Markets and Biodiversity Credits (Webinar)
Nature markets and biodiversity credits are gaining global attention as innovative mechanisms to help finance biodiversity conservation and ecosystem restoration. As governments, financial institutions, standard-setting bodies, and project developers explore new approaches, important questions emerge around integrity, governance, safeguards, monitoring, and equitable benefit-sharing.
This webinar will explore the growing role of nature markets, including compliance and voluntary mechanisms, in generating credible revenue pathways for biodiversity conservation.
Bringing together stakeholders from finance, policy, standard-setting bodies, project developers, and Indigenous and community perspectives, the session will examine:
-
How nature markets, biodiversity credits, and compensatory conservation schemes are evolving in practice
-
Where market demand is emerging and what drives investment interest
-
The enabling conditions needed to support integrity, scale, and long-term investment confidence
-
Lessons from real-world case studies and emerging experiences
-
Key challenges related to governance, safeguards, monitoring and verification, and benefit-sharing
-
How nature markets can complement broader public finance and policy frameworks to support national biodiversity goals while ensuring positive outcomes for nature and people
Through practical examples and expert insights, the discussion will provide an opportunity to reflect on both the opportunities and complexities associated with scaling biodiversity finance through market-based instruments.
