Private Capital for Working Lands Conservation

In this report, CFN aims to socialize and expand the body of knowledge on market development by capturing and disseminating findings from our Conservation Finance Roundtable. The resulting market development framework is intended to serve as a road map and decision support tool for conservation investors, public agents, foundation professionals, and environmental practitioners alike. It is designed to help market participants set realistic goals, expectations and timeframes for deliverables and objectives. By distilling the roles and deliverables of market maturation and highlighting how relevant stakeholders may better structure partnerships and efforts, those involved may be able to accelerate the pace and scale at which private capital is leveraged for conservation outcomes on working lands across the Unit­ed States.
