The Conservation Finance Network at Island Press deliversconservation finance tools and training to people working to protect, restore, and steward natural areas. Our goal is to help people accelerate the pace of land and resource conservation through the use of innovative funding and financing strategies. To this end, we are building a community of practice that brings together thought leaders, practitioners, and partner organizations. This network will advance the field of conservation finance by fostering new ideas and ensuring that those ideas are implemented in policy and practice.
