Mangroves protect coastlines, sequester carbon and sustain livelihoods. They also underpin revenue-generating businesses across aquaculture, fisheries, ecotourism, coastal agriculture and infrastructure. Yet this value rarely factors in how financial institutions assess risk or opportunity.

Do you have a business or venture that depends on, or has a positive impact on, mangrove ecosystems? Many do without thinking of themselves as "mangrove-positive". A mangrove-positive business is one that sustainably derives value from, depends on, and/or benefits from the protective functions of mangrove ecosystems, and channels finance or practices toward their conservation and restoration. It is relevant if your activities relate to: sustainable aquaculture, fisheries, coastal agriculture, tourism, infrastructure & real estate, shipping, and blue carbon. Communicating your mangrove-positive business model this to lenders and investors can open doors to finance that might otherwise be out of reach.

Hosted by the Mangrove Breakthrough and partners, this webinar explains what it means to be mangrove-positive from a commercial standpoint. It is also the first step in a broader effort to connect businesses like yours with lenders and investors actively looking for these opportunities.

What you'll gain:

•     A clear definition of mangrove-positive and how it applies across sectors

•     An overview of what lenders and investors look for, and the types of finance available

•     A readiness checklist covering the documentation and impact story to prepare before approaching a lender

Looking forward to seeing you soon.
