The portfolio is a dynamic solution for companies to contribute to global biodiversity targets through three pillars: (1) policy and accountability to address systemic challenges; (2) hands-on protection and restoration; (3) innovative financing to drive change. It takes an impact-first approach, aiming to catalyse significant, lasting environmental change by prioritising local community needs and keeping people at the center.

Blue Alliance is developing the Blue Finance Impact Facility, a blended finance mechanism, to regenerate coral reef ecosystems and improve livelihoods in Indonesia’s Central Sulawesi Province. The facility will support the management of 16 Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) spanning 600,000 hectares of coral reefs and develop reef-positive businesses like ecotourism, aquaculture and sustainable fisheries.  Financial sustainability of the MPAs will be ensured through dividends and revenue-sharing, with a versatile structure that combines grants, refundable grants, performance impact loans, and climate insurance solutions.

Earth Acre, in partnership with East Africa Carbon and Biodiversity Limited, is accelerating the creation of carbon and biodiversity credits on community-managed lands in Kenya. However, carbon and biodiversity credit development is a lengthy process, and to bridge this gap, the project provides direct cash transfers to landowners and uses a technology platform to manage nature-based revenue streams. This initiative helps sustain community engagement, expand sustainable land management, and protect critical ecosystems in the region, especially by restoring historic migratory corridors.

Rare is pioneering a first-of-its-kind  Small-Scale Fisheries (SSF) Impact Bond which will enable community-led co-management of fisheries in Southeast Sulawesi. The project will establish five new “Managed Access with Reserves (MA+R)” areas, to be designated as Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OECMs), to protect vital territorial seas that host over 80% of the world’s corals, seagrasses, and mangroves, where protection is often insufficient. The investment will also formalize and strengthen microbusinesses in MA+R sites, boosting sustainable employment and enabling Fisheries Management Bodies (FMBs) to become financially independent. By tying outcomes to measurable conservation impacts, Rare secures private, public and philanthropic funding to ensure long-term sustainability for both the fisheries and the communities that rely on them.

This pilot project by the Indian Institute for Human Settlements (IIHS) tackles urban ecology and water management challenges in Bengaluru, India. By combining ecological restoration with sustainable urban planning, the initiative aims to enhance biodiversity and improve water security through the mapping of blue-green spaces, constructed wetlands, and long-term monitoring of urban lakes.

The Conservation Finance Alliance (CFA) incubator aims to identify, incubate and enhance conservation finance solutions and tools to drive greater impact. Over the course of one year,  it will support 5-10 groundbreaking projects selected through a global call for proposals by providing grants, mentorship, and development opportunities. By nurturing these concepts, the program aims to unlock additional funding and scale impactful conservation initiatives worldwide.
