Biodiversity and the ecosystem services it provides are the foundation of our economies and our well-being. Despite their invaluable benefits, biodiversity continues to decline, generating increasing costs and risks to society, economies and business Accelerated action is needed to strengthen biodiversity policies and translate commitments to effective implementation. Mobilising finance at scale is essential to support these efforts and deliver effective biodiversity outcomes to halt and reverse biodiversity loss.
Ahead of the 17th Conference of the Parties to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity in Armenia, this Green Talk Live will present latest OECD analysis on global biodiversity finance. Drawing on experiences and good practices insights worldwide, it will also explore how to mobilise public and private finance for biodiversity, examining a range of instruments and mechanisms across the real economy and the financial sector. Key questions examined include:
What do the latest data reveal on global biodiversity finance flows?
How can biodiversity finance data and reporting be improved to ensure greater consistency, international comparability, coverage and transparency?
How can public and private finance be mobilised at scale and deployed effectively to support biodiversity objectives?
Join us at the next OECD Green Talks LIVE webinar on Monday 5 October from 3:30-4:30 pm CEST, where we will discuss these questions and more.
Following a presentation of the key findings, a panel of experts will share their reflections and country insights.
