We worked with the UNEP Climate Finance Unit to launch the Land Use Finance Impact Hub, a new knowledge resource that helps financial institutions to measure the positive impact of their investments on biodiversity conservation, climate adaptation, climate mitigation and sustainable livelihoods.

The Hub provides tools and guidance to support investors as they work to deliver more impactful and sustainable investments. The Hub’s Positive Impact Indicators Directory contains a shortlist of standardized key performance indicators that are designed to encompass fundamental aspects of sustainable land use investment. The first of its kind, this tool is already being used to streamline existing efforts of financial institutions and provide an easily accessible starting point for others to track their positive impacts.
