The report provides an overview of development finance with biodiversity-related objectives
from a wide range of sources: bilateral Development Assistance Committee (DAC) members,
non-DAC and South-South and triangular co-operation providers, multilateral institutions,
private finance mobilised by development finance, and private philanthropy. The estimates
are based on OECD statistical data. The report identifies the main gaps between biodiversity-related
priorities and investments, and provides detailed estimates on financial allocations
to the fight against illegal wildlife trade; nature-based solutions; indigenous peoples
and local communities; the mainstreaming of biodiversity; gender equality; and climate
change. These elements can help DAC members and other stakeholders to step up and
target their biodiversity-related investments, notably to implement the Kunming-Montreal
Global Biodiversity Framework under the Convention on Biological Diversity.
