Catchment Scale Investment – Frontiers in Nature Finance Series

Nature is our strongest asset against a changing climate, but restoration must happen at scale to be effective. Catchment-scale projects are emerging as a powerful engine for place-based collaboration, delivering benefits for biodiversity, water quality, flood resilience, and productive landscapes.

This event, co-hosted with the Scottish Government, brings together policymakers, businesses, charities, academia, and infrastructure professionals to explore near-term priorities and opportunities for private and public investment in catchment-scale nature restoration across Scotland.

Attendees will gain insight into why catchment-scale restoration is such an effective driver for climate resilience, what is needed to scale up projects across Scotland, and how partnerships can attract the investment required to meet the pace of change needed.

Join us to network, share ideas, and help shape nature finance in Scotland.
