Finance for Biodiversity (F4B) aims to increase the materiality of biodiversity in financial decision-making, and so better align global finance with nature conservation and restoration.
F4B is a dual-purpose platform, both implementing its own activities across five work streams and making grants to support others to undertake work in these areas.
F4B aims to achieve its goal through network effects and by engaging key organisations, experts and influencers to align their agendas and establish a common framework for biodiversity and finance. The initiative follows a dynamic learning model that quickly tests, learns and reinforces success, through collaboration, leveraging of existing initiatives, and catalysing new areas of work. F4B’s regranting capability allows the initiative to rapidly respond to global developments as they unfold, as well as work with a diverse network of third-parties, crowding in knowledge and expertise.
