From Margins to Markets: Financing Wetland Resilience at Scale (tbc)

Wetlands are among the most powerful yet undervalued tools for building climate adaptation and resilience. Yet despite protecting hundreds of millions of people from floods, droughts and storm surges, supporting water security and livelihoods and storing vast quantities of blue carbon, wetlands remain chronically underfunded and largely absent from emerging voluntary carbon and adaptation finance markets.  This event brings together leading voices from finance, conservation and the private sector to explore how new approaches to adaptation and resilience finance can unlock investment in wetland conservation and restoration at scale whilst delivering for KM-GBF.
