As outlined in the nature networks framework, Nature Networks require sustained and long-term funding that is accessible at all stages of delivery. This page highlights some of the available sources of funding that can be used to contribute to work on nature networks. More generally, natural capital and nature-based finance approaches are being developed with the view to harness responsible private investment for restoration. Relevant opportunities will be added as they emerge.
Covering Framework Delivery Principles:
- Data, mapping, & monitoring
- Finance & resourcing
- Governance & decision making
- Knowledge & skills
- Monitoring, Evaluation & Reporting
- Participation, engagement, & communication
- Policy & Mainstreaming
- Project Development
- Project Implementation
- Spatial Mapping
- Peatland ACTION funding supports on-the-ground peatland restoration activities. This funding can be used to restore degraded peatland in areas where two peatland sites may need connecting up contributing to a nature network.
- A competitive fund, which specifically encourages multi-year, multi-partner applications for projects that restore wildlife and habitats on land and sea, and address the twin crises of biodiversity loss and climate change.
- This fund can be accessed by projects that aim to improve and enhance coastal habitat connectivity.
- The FIRNS fund can be used to support Nature Networks through the development of financial tools and methods for quantifying the benefits of biodiversity to aid investment.
