From risk to resilience: Financing frontline action for climate, nature and livelihoods

Today’s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) finance frameworks are still largely focused on screening out risk – and they’re not enough to tackle the climate emergency.
In this session, we call for a radical rethinking of sustainable finance: one that shifts capital flows to the frontlines, where they can support locally-led solutions for climate resilience, ecosystem restoration and improved livelihoods. Meet trailblazers who are turning ESG and impact investing into tools for regeneration, inclusion and sustainability, and learn how finance can help us achieve the SDGs by investing in smallholder farmers, rural communities and landscape restoration.
