Landscape Enterprise Networks – An Innovative Private-Sector Mechanism for Landscape Finance
This webinar will bring together leading innovators that are spearheading the development and implementation of Landscape Enterprise Networks (LENs), a financial mechanism that aims to elicit a demand for ecosystem services within landscapes.
The developers of LENs will share what they learned from this exciting mechanism and where they see the model evolving as they expand from their current nine landscape partnerships.
The event will include presentations from members of the leadership team involved with LENs, including Andy Griffiths of Diageo and Daniel Zimmer, co-lead of the Finance Solutions Design Team of 1000 Landscapes for One Billion People initiative.
This webinar is hosted by 1000 Landscapes for 1 Billion People and is the first in an upcoming series focusing on landscape finance and Integrated Landscape Management.
