The question of how to invest in nature most effectively is at the heart of many conversations across the conservation community and beyond. The Cambridge Conservation Initiative partnership, which draws together conservation practitioners and academics, is ideally placed to consider what best practice might look like in terms of such investing. In this session representatives from CCI partners and corporate institutions will share their examples of best practice projects showcasing a range of nature investment mechanisms. Following brief presentations session participants will be encouraged to join small groups to discuss these mechanisms in more detail.
