About Event

Imagine an Australia where public, private, research and community sectors work together to create innovative adaptation projects that include commercial activity to secure finance and long term revenue streams. 

About the event

Led by Dr Stella Whittaker, of Haskoning and Copenhagen Business School and Dr Michael Lindfield, author of the UNDP Adaptation Finance Strategy Guideline and chaired by Susan McHattie, Strategic Advisor we will:

  1. Recognise the demand and supply barriers blocking innovation and scale in adaptation finance

  2. Scan initiatives in Australia, Europe and the Asia Pacific

  3. Explore the shape and benefits of interventions that bring sectors together with Blair Palese, EthInvest and Climate Capital Forum, Kristy Graham, Australian Sustainable Finance Institute, and Jongsok Oh, Suncorp

  4. Launch a climate adaptation investment network

  5. Build relationships across the siloes at afternoon tea following the event.
