Collective governance

Securing the health of Earth’s climate, ecosystems and biodiversity is essential to the well-being of all people. Worldwide, Conservation International is working to improve the lives of people everywhere by protecting oceans, forests and other living ecosystems.

The World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) brings together transformational organizations to form a global community that shifts the systems they work within towards a better future. Our members push the boundaries of what businesses can achieve by taking action to limit the climate crisis, restore nature and tackle inequality. So that all people can thrive in a way that’s sustainable for our planet – by 2050.

“Our approach is affordable as well as scalable. We capture biodiversity data on the ground using a range of technologies. All the data we collect is organised and analysed first with machine learning, then quality-checked by ecosystem experts.
We’re building the most detailed set of annotated, species-level biodiversity data ever compiled – while providing measured, quality-controlled analytics to show evidence of any biodiversity gains on the ground.”

Our mission is to drive the transition to a nature based economy by enabling the flow of private capital to protect and restore nature. Our platform leverages innovative cutting edge technologies alongside citizen science from local communities to map out the value of nature at an ecosystem level. It will enable informed decision-making, effective risk management, and portfolio construction for investments in natural capital solutions.

“We believe that action should be taken to aid communities on the forefront of the climate crisis. This is achieved by applying the “”Plan Vivo”” concept of:
-Relieving poverty by offering sustainable livelihoods for communities whose environments have been degraded.
-Restoring and protecting environments so to help protect communities against climate change and biodiversity loss and provide a variety of sustainable development benefits.
-Building local capacity through the transfer of knowledge, skills and resources to developing countries.”

Our aim is to unlock nature positive investment. We connect landholders with like-minded investors to deliver nature recovery projects and provide verified evidence of investment impact such as biodiversity resilience and ecosystem uplift.

The Organization for Biodiversity Certificates unites companies, NGOs and scientific experts to achieve our common objective : creating an operational tool for the evaluation of local positive biodiversity impacts. OBC was co-founded by aDryada and Le Printemps des Terres, in collaboration with Carbone 4 and the French National Museum of Natural History.

We work to create self-sustaining forest carbon projects and programmes. Many of the projects start with developing a financial model that drives regenerative capability and self-sustainability. They are all locally owned, developed collaboratively, and as much as possible, locally delivered.

The HBAR Foundation leadership team includes experts in technology, business, legal, marketing, and ecosystem development – all focused on the success of your project. Our team members have deep roots in the distributed ledger space, and we are passionate about enabling projects to move from ideation to production – at scale.

As a leading centre for research, the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences focuses on environmental research, as well as knowledge, decision support and facts about climate solutions. We teach our students about sustainability, and they inspire us to further reduce our climate impact

The Scottish Nature Finance Pioneers, or the ‘Pioneers’, is about exploring, discussing and contributing to the supporting infrastructure required for high integrity nature finance markets. This includes project pipeline, metrics thinking, influencing policy alignment, and learning from what works elsewhere.

As a leading centre for research, the University of Nottingham’s researchers and centres also focus on the effects of climate change on biodiversity in various ecosystems around the world, as well as researching nature positive solutions.

We partner with climate-leading companies and organizations to develop, finance and support projects that reduce carbon emissions, improve health and livelihoods and protect and restore biodiversity. Through our quality-first approach, we help our clients achieve ambition climate targets, meet global net zero goals and deliver real impact.

Qarlbo makes investments in future-oriented companies, partnering with their founders, providing capital, industry expertise and access to an international network to further develop the investments over multiple generations.

Our mission is to build policies that deliver spectacular improvement in the speed of environmental progress. We focus on improving policies that allow private sector funding or stewardship to expand or supplant public or charitable conservation work, transforming government policies to focus on what matters – outcomes, and eliminating the organizational barriers that prevent public agencies from adapting to 21st century solutions.

rePLANET is a for purpose company, driving large scale ecological restoration and protection through private sector funding. rePLANET projects produce premium quality carbon and biodiversity credits with substantial benefits to local stakeholders, and the costs of these credits are deliberately kept competitive so that they attract large scale-funding to restore or protect substantial areas.

ValueNature is actively facilitating the development of 4 nature investment and biodiversity credit projects that spans over 500,000 hectares across 4 countries in the Global South to bring to market by 2024. Across these projects we are working on nature crediting pilots with both Plan Vivo in Uganda and Verra in Zambia and South Africa, actively contributing to the development of their Nature crediting methodologies, while concurrently developing our own.

Terrasos is a company specialized in the structuring and operation of environmental investments. Our work is focused in four main areas: offset and environmental investments, impact analysis, development of the intervention strategies and data management. Our activity is based on the premise that sustainable development involves a balance between the economic, social and environmental functionality of the territory. We collaborate with public and private entities in the design and implementation of natural resource management and sustainability strategies.
