'Great Lakes of Opportunity" Playbook Webinar

The Great Lakes Impact Investment Platform and the Conservation Finance Network developed the “Great Lakes of Opportunity” playbook to help spur conservation finance projects and deals in the Great Lakes St. Lawrence region. In recent years, governments and the private sector have invested billions of dollars to improve the environment in the region. However, a gap of billions still exists to achieve regional goals. The rapidly growing areas of conservation finance and impact investment, which encompass a range of strategies meant to raise, manage, and deploy capital or align incentives for environmental improvements, holds great promise to help close this gap. The playbook outlines a set of strategies to expand the project pipeline and attract investment for regional action.
