This October, world leaders and experts will convene in Cali, Colombia, for the 2024 United Nations Biodiversity Conference (CBD COP16) to take action to protect the rich variety of life on Earth. Species are dying out faster than ever, and the stakes are immense: losing biodiversity means losing essential ecosystem services, livelihoods, food security and climate regulation.

So, how can we reverse this trend and – most importantly – fund these efforts? Everyone has a role to play: businesses, investors, entrepreneurs, inventors, governments, NGOs, scientists, Indigenous Peoples, local communities, youth and many more. Find out how on 25 October at the 7th GLF Investment Case Symposium themed "Rewarding Nature: A Roadmap to Finance the Biodiversity Plan".

This will be the world’s largest event on sustainable finance in the Global South this year.
