- **Event Description**: An Exploration of Green Financing Strategies and Instruments for the Environmental &amp; Conservation Sector on Southern Vancouver Island.About this EventWhy This Conversation?Grants and philanthropy alone cannot meet the scale of conservation need across Southern Vancouver Island and the Capital Regional District. Emerging green finance and conservation finance instruments offer exciting possibilities — but navigating this landscape requires shared learning, local knowledge, and collaborative design.This interactive session brings together conservation practitioners, impact investors, catalytic philanthropists, and non-profit leaders to explore how blended finance tools can be deployed locally. Green financing instruments include many options, including but not limited to biodiversity credits, impact bonds and ecosystem services payments.Habitat Acquisition Trust (HAT) has been working alongside UVic’s BIOSCAN and Balance Co-Lab programs, plus other local partners to support the SC'IȺNEW̱ Nation in exploring the development of a Tribal Park. One goal of this research is to investigate various financing, governance, and monitoring programs that might be implemented.Case Study &amp; Supporting PartnersHabitat Acquisition Trust — Local land trust expertise and conservation delivery capacity, working with Nature4Justice on green financing options.UVic BIOSCAN Program — Biodiversity science and baseline data to underpin valuation and monitoring.UVic Balance Co-Lab – Community-based research to develop economic value framework systems.Scale Collaborative — Finance design, facilitation and impact investment expertiseSession DeliverablesA curated overview of green and conservation finance instruments applicable to BC land conservationDiscussion of barriers, enablers, and local conditions shaping feasibilityInsight into how the SC'IȺNEW̱ Tribal Park proposal could serve as a replicable modelConnections with peers working at the intersection of nature and capitalA clear sense of appetite for a formal local working groupSupport tools to improve nature-based solutions.⭐ Join a Local Working GroupA key outcome of this session may be the formation of a local Conservation Finance Working Group — a standing body to develop, test and champion locally- appropriate instruments.
