Room: B2 Auditorium

The opening plenary will set the stage for a day of discussions on how to advance private sector investment in sustainable landscapes. This session will highlight actions currently being taken by influential partners such as the World Bank Group, Calvert Impact Capital and other leaders in the field. Speakers will provide participants with a picture of what is happening on the ground and what excites them on the horizon to create and sustain healthy landscapes and resilient populations. The plenary will briefly cover challenges facing the global community, but be aspirational in highlighting initiatives that are capable of creating change at scale.
