WHAT WE DO
We bridge the gap between conservation practitioners and investors, supporting the design, structuring and financing of sustainable landscape programmes that deliver impacts on the Global Sustainable Development Goals.
Landscapes first. We support communities that are passionate about protecting nature, regenerating their economies, and restoring the places that make them who they are, their landscapes.
Landscape Finance
We work with practitioners, funders and investors to turn landscape ideas into investment-ready propositions.
Landscape Learning
We foster a resilient landscape network through cross-sector collaboration, peer-learning networks and sharing knowledge products.
Landscape Incubation
We design and structure high-quality landscape restoration programmes in global biodiversity hotspots.
Featured Landscapes
The Lab has a pipeline of investable landscape programmes around the world, with a focus on wetlands and peatlands; coasts and reefs; rainforests; and commodity sourcing landscapes.
