Bankable Nature Solutions

Conservation and nature-based solutions represent a massive opportunity to adapt to and mitigate climate change and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. Working with companies, financial institutions and local stakeholders, the WWF is helping to develop Bankable Nature Solutions (BNS) which reduce pressure on ecosystems, drive resilience and sustainability for both people and nature, and generate financial return for communities and investors.  

WWF offers a set of resources, including a publication, and a series of case studies demonstrating that Bankable Nature Solutions can be a promising solution, helping to upscale projects and to achieve more impact.
