The Wildlife Conservation Society, in collaboration with the Conservation Finance Alliance and in support of the 50 Reefs initiative, recently released Finance Tools for Coral Reef Conservation: A Guide as a resource for protected area managers and others charged with managing and financing reef conservation. The report describes 13 types of finance tools which have either been proven successful at or have great potential to support reef conservation and sustainable management. Some of the finance tools covered in this overview webinar include tourism-based fees, biodiversity offsets, bonds, debt swaps, and conservation trust funds. This webinar shares key findings and recommendations from the report and invites discussion from participants. This webinar is sponsored by the International Coral Reef Initiative (ICRI), an informal partnership which strives to preserve coral reefs and related ecosystems around the world, as part of its collaboration with the Conservation Finance Alliance for promoting innovative financing for coral reef conservation.

Presented by: David Meyers of the Conservation Finance Alliance and Venkat Iyer of the Wildlife Conservation Society
