Why Fund Nature: Biodiversity as Foundational Climate Action
Biodiversity loss is accelerating, and the window to act is closing faster than most people realise.
This session makes the case for nature and those working so hard to protected and restore it as a foundational climate strategy and a high-leverage opportunity for funders at every stage of their giving journey. Through a conversation with a leading philanthropist and a panel of practitioners and fellow funders, we will explore how protecting ecosystems, particularly through locally-led and diverse actors, connects directly to climate stability, food security, human health, and community resilience, and what it looks like in practice to fund nature well.
Whether you are new to environmental giving or looking to deepen your engagement to trust-based giving, this session is designed to sharpen your thinking and expand your sense of what is possible.
