Finance Day

Mobilising finance for nature at scale requires more than knowing where the money is. It requires knowing how to navigate the finance–nature landscape.

At , financing for land restoration, drought resilience and sustainable land management is at the centre of discussions, including how public, private and multilateral capital can be better mobilised and aligned.

The finance–nature landscape is broad, spanning nature as a natural capital asset and its significance in the economy, governance and data, financial instruments and emerging approaches to financing biodiversity.

For professionals across governments, financial institutions, businesses and international organisations, understanding nature–related financial risks, data, governance frameworks and the range of financial instruments available, is becoming increasingly important.

The IUCN Professional Certificate on Finance for Nature offers a 360-degree exploration of these issues combining expert perspectives, case studies, live sessions and applied individual and group work.

As COP17 discussions move from the financing gap to how capital can be directed, building the knowledge and skills to make informed choices matters more than ever.

🌿 Explore the Professional Certificate on Finance for Nature and strengthen your toolkit to engage with the evolving finance-nature nexus.
