A new key biodiversity platform for cross sectoral collaboration
For its inaugural launch, World Biodiversity Summit will help define what world leaders and the private sector in biodiversity and climate action need to do in the medium and long term to achieve sustainable development and hinder further biodiversity loss, focusing on partnerships and investment mechanisms as levers of progress. World Biodiversity Summit is a platform for responding to accelerating biodiversity loss, by using the Paris Agreement as a framework to learn from, promoting relevant solutions, innovations, and leadership networks, strengthening nature restoration and conservation. Nature-based solutions will be highlighted, from specificecosystems to global possibilities.
By establishing the World Climate Foundation as a commercial foundation, our aim is to create an organisation that will have systemic impact on the global transition to a low-carbon and clean economy through two distinct methods:
-
by developing and running environmental impact platforms in line with the Paris Agreement and the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals
-
an international growth engine for new impact enterprises that can help transition businesses and markets in line with environmental stewardship
High-Level Impact Platforms for Climate, Biodiversity & Health
Through our three global impact platforms, we provide platforms for multi-sector stakeholders to build alliances and develop ambition loops for climate, biodiversity and health.
Our Impact Platforms serve as a springboard for our partners and members to drive the innovative solutions, ambitious policies and bold investments necessary for a net-zero, nature-positive and resilient future.
World Climate Network
World Climate Network has brought together a long-standing group of influential high-level decision-makers focusing on reaching net-zero by 2050, a swift transition to a new climate economy and implementing the Paris Agreement. It is driven by genuine action in the form of breakthrough innovations, impactful policies and sustainable investments.
