About the 6th GLF Investment Case Symposium

Hosted in Luxembourg and online, GLF–Luxembourg Finance for Nature 2023: What comes next? united 4,500 participants from 160 countries around how finance can solve – rather than exacerbate – the climate and biodiversity crises. The event featured 106 speakers and 100 global and local partner organizations and reached 10 million people on social media, with more than 230,000 engagements.

About this session

This session presents two investment cases from Colombia and Mongolia that have taken steps towards developing partnerships with the commercial sector, investors, and value chain actors to harness finance for rangeland protection and restoration through sustainable low-emission livestock value chains.

These cases highlight the importance of a collaborative approach to such investment opportunities, bringing together producers, research organizations, NGOs, the commercial sector, and climate financers. The session is a collaboration between the CGIAR initiatives on Livestock and Climate and Climate Resilience, the Sustainable Fibre Alliance, Hacienda San Jose Colombia, and the CGIAR Hub for Sustainable Finance.
