Global Workshop events

This session will help carbon credit buyers navigate the global uncertainty, growing interest in climate and nature finance ahead of COP30 and ever growing evidence of climate and nature crises. It will help identify where can value be driven across this market for corporates wanting to contribute but are unsure of benefits and how does nature fit into this story and why the value goes beyond carbon. It will also touch upon the main differences between the compliance and th

ABOUT: The Nature Climate Solutions Alliance (NCSA) is organizing a series of events during London Climate Action Week, focused on the transformative role of high-quality nature-based solutions in the voluntary carbon market.

e voluntary carbon markets. 

The event, in collaboration with adelphi, will bring together the London-based and international investment community along with government and civil-society stakeholders to explore the critical role of finance in supporting and preserving environmentally sensitive regions while also fostering economic development, reducing conflict over resources, navigating criminal dynamics and promoting sustainable livelihoods. It will discuss the ecological, social and economic significance of investing in environmentally sensitive regions and the potential for positive impacts on global climate stability and biodiversity preservation; examine the specific risks investors face when financing projects in these fragile contexts, including political instability, security risks and regulatory challenges; and present strategies and frameworks that can help mitigate these risks, such as partnerships with local communities, adherence to sustainable-investment principles and leveraging technology for better monitoring and management.

Investing in resilience isn’t just about mitigating risk – it’s about building stronger, more inclusive agricultural markets that can thrive in the face of climate shocks and economic challenges. But to do this effectively, we need to measure what works. This session, led by Acumen and IDH, will explore how capital across the investment spectrum can enhance resilience, why impact measurement is critical, and how data-driven decision-making helps design scalable, smallholder-centered solutions. Don’t miss this conversation on the future of resilient food systems.

Join for an in-person briefing to explore how global policy shifts are reshaping transition risk and sustainable financing opportunities for companies, investors and governments.

The Cities & Nature Stage

As urban populations grow and climate impacts intensify, cities are under pressure to become more resilient, liveable and aligned with nature. At the Cities & Nature Stage, you will explore how urban environments can be transformed through climate-smart planning, nature-based solutions and inclusive policy frameworks that benefit people and the planet.

Join stakeholders from central and local governments, the private sector and environmental organisations as they showcase the strategies and innovations driving sustainable urban development. From restoring biodiversity to adapting to blue economy and sustainable live sports and events, the sessions will spotlight scalable, cross-sector solutions that will enable you to contribute towards a more sustainable future.

Topics on this stage will include: 

• Designing climate-resilient cities: rethinking urban planning to adapt to climate change

• Restoring nature in urban spaces: integrating biodiversity and nature-based solutions into development

• Rethinking infrastructure and mobility: building sustainable transport and smart city systems for the future

• Driving inclusive transformation: aligning policy, community engagement and cross-sector collaboration

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are versatile technologies that have drastically lowered the cost of data production and analysis, potentially accelerating global decarbonisation and addressing socioeconomic issues. Nonetheless, concerns persist regarding their environmental impact and the risk of propagating low-quality information, especially with large language models (LLMs).

Like any tool, AI can yield both positive and negative outcomes. As the demand for real-time data increases for the net-zero transition, the Transition Pathway Initiative Centre (TPI Centre) at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) is navigating this challenge. While AI could help process the necessary data for net zero alignment, unchecked reliance on automation may lead to misinformation and greenwashing, jeopardising sound decision-making. This event will explore the TPI Centre’s pilot programme aimed at automating data collection to evaluate the net-zero progress of companies, banks, and countries. By bringing together academics, researchers, investors and businesses, we hope to foster discussions on the information essential for advancing the net-zero transition.

​A global panel discussion and Q&A exploring the vital role of open data in the drive to end deforestation and human rights abuses linked to international commodity trade.

​Hosted by Oxford-based NGO, Global Canopy, panellists will include experts from civil society and Tony’s Chocolonely (Tony’s Open Chain).

​The discussion will explore the use of data to accelerate the transition to more transparent, sustainable and equitable agricultural supply chains.

​This event will appeal to NGOs, academics, funders and corporate leaders.

Cattle, soy, and palm oil are keystone commodities that underpin entire economies, support millions of rural livelihoods and permeate global food systems. However, they also drive habitat and biodiversity loss. To meet rising demand sustainably, we need resilient business models that decouple production from deforestation and certain land use change that contributes to emissions and habitat loss. Financial institutions, as the providers of capital to commodity companies, have the power to change the trajectory of deforestation and conversion rates. These emerging models can drive a new wave of agricultural productivity, reducing emissions and resource use while enhancing resilience and lowering costs.

Join TNC on April 24-25, 2025, at the Royal Society in London for a day and a half of private workshops to help you achieve deforestation and conversion-free finance. This closed door event will provide essential training to help the financial sector understand commodity supply chains, manage risk and achieve growth through empowered client-facing teams.

A select group of international leaders will participate in a Breakthrough Workshop on Indigenous Economy & Just Resilience this coming January in Ecuador.

The Indigenous Farming Association of the Napo Valley in Ecuador (Wiñak), Nature4Climate and Regions4, with the support of the Plataforma Amazonica, are hosting this experience focused on the indigenous economy in a tropical forest setting. The workshop aims to build consensus on the importance of supporting the ‘Indigenous Economy’ as essential to achieving a net-zero, nature-positive future that can adapt for just resilience to global climate change and biodiversity loss.

The workshop will be hosted locally by the indigenous enterprise Wiñak, a collective of several hundred Kichwa producers located in the Napo Province of Ecuador. Participants will include representatives from provincial governments, civil society organizations, the private sector, philanthropy, and indigenous communities from Mesoamerica, Peru, Brazil, and the Ecuadorian Amazon. They will come together to share their experiences in this immersive dialogue on the indigenous economy and just resilience.
