Financing the future of our Oceans: Bridging Climate Resilience and Local Impact
Collaboration between key partners can bring hands-on experience in climate-resilient solutions. In this session, we aim to bridge the gap between financial mechanisms and on-the-ground delivery of sustainable blue economy initiatives. Drawing from projects that combine marine infrastructure with nature-based solutions, such as mangrove restoration and coastal protection, we can show how blended finance and partnerships can unlock scalable impact tailored to national and local needs.
