Since publishing its first conservation finance scoping paper in 2018, the Australian Land Conservation Alliance (ALCA) has been working to unlock more conservation investment and support a growing network of conservation finance practitioners across the non-profit, private and public sectors.
By popular demand ALCA has updated the scoping paper and will launch the new and improved “Conservation Finance Handbook” on February 26.
The Handbook will support the private land conservation sector to understand and apply the range of available conservation finance approaches. These approaches are also relevant to government, and the business, finance and investment, agriculture and philanthropy sectors.
At the launch ALCA will take you through a high-level overview of the Handbook, sharing the range of pathways and opportunities available to diversify and increase financial flows for nature. It will also outline its plans for the Conservation Finance Network in 2025 – which includes a series of conservation finance webinars that unpack approaches in the handbook in detail, and its annual Conservation Finance Intensive.
