Finance and Biodiversity. Overview initiatives for financial institutions

Detalles

The overview of biodiversity-related initiatives for financial institutions aims to help financial institutions understand what initiatives exist and who is doing what. It was launched in April 2021 by the Finance for Biodiversity Foundation, UNEP FI, PRI, and Finance@Biodiversity Community. The overview is updated annually. The momentum behind biodiversity is growing among financial institutions, as is the number of communities, networks, and initiatives dedicated to this topic. The summary document shows the topics addressed by each initiative, the activities and deliverables planned for 2023-2024, published reports and contact information. It aims to enable synergies and accelerate collaboration on key issues.
