This report from the Luc Hoffmann Institute provides an overview of financial transaction mechanisms and related enabling frameworks that aim to protect and restore nature.

Attaching a monetised value to these benefits is a necessary step towards addressing the massive gap between investment in activities that are harmful to nature and investment in those that protect nature.
