BIOFUND Presentation - Funding for the Future

On October 24th, 2019 a group of CFA members and conservation finance professionals met in Washington D.C. for a presentation by BIOFUND (Mozambique’s Foundation for the Conservation of Biodiversity) on the challenges of financing Marine Protected Areas in Mozambique. The presenters focused on how they are blending traditional project finance with earmarked endowments, biodiversity offsets, and other innovative finance mechanisms to support the Primeiras and Segundas Reserve. Presenters included Luis Honwana, Executive Director; Sean Nazerali, Director for Innovative Financing; and Anabela Rodrigues, V.P. of the Board of Directors.
