High-Level Plenary: Scaling Up and Tracking Public and Private Finance for Biodiversity

Oct 7, 2025 | 2:30 PM - 3:40 PM

Conference Room CC15 & Online

Description

Halting and reversing biodiversity loss by 2030, as called for under the CBD Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KMGBF), will require unprecedented levels of finance from all sectors—public and private alike. This session will bring together policymakers, the private sector, and international organisations to discuss barriers and opportunities for scaling up and better tracking biodiversity finance. It will cover scaling incentives to drive finance for biodiversity, creating bankable and replicable projects, and how to better track private sector finance. It will also explore the role of development finance in leveraging private finance for biodiversity in developing countries.
