Healthy, thriving and biodiverse landscapes are vital to ensuring that the world stays within a well below 2C pathway, so it was no surprise that the financing of these macro-climate solutions was a hot topic at the summit in Dublin earlier in November.
Paul Chatterton, Lead and Founder of the WWF Landscape Finance Lab (LFL) is working closely with EIT Climate-KIC’s Sustainable Land Use theme, and said, “We can’t use the tools that have created the crisis to fix it. Project-based and sectoral approaches haven’t worked. We need new approaches. We need larger, long-term and integrated approaches, and landscapes provide this. Led by local communities, landscape programmes allow an elevated scale that can attract new public and private finance and deliver SDGs.”
