We’re excited to share that Wildlife Works will be at Climate Week NYC this year, and we’d love for you to join us at the events our team members are speaking at:
Making Biodiversity Markets Work for Indigenous Peoples
🗓️ Wednesday, September 24, 3pm - 4:30PM EDT
📍 New York Academy of Sciences
As biodiversity credits take shape in natural capital markets, how can Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities take a leading role in developing biodiversity markets to be equitable and effective for communities, while safeguarding the ecosystems that sustain us all?
From Indigenous leaders, project developers and impact investors, this panel brings together diverse voices who are shaping the future of biodiversity markets.
Tashka and Laura Yawanawa, Indigenous leaders from Acre, Brazil, will share their groundbreaking work piloting the first project that will issue Biodiversity Stewardship Units.
Mike Korchinsky, Wildlife Works President and Founder will speak at:
Equitable Finance Opportunities for Forest Stewardship
🗓️ Thursday, September 25, 12:30-2:30PM EDT
📍 Central Park Zoo
This session will focus on how highly forested landscapes, including those classified as High Forest, Low Deforestation (HFLD), can access critical funding opportunities to continue remaining forested.
Jeremy Freund, Wildlife Works Chief Technology Officer will speak at:
