This webinar will introduce and explore the High Integrity Forest (HIFOR) Investment Initiative which aims to create a new climate and biodiversity asset class to help finance the protection of high integrity tropical forests - those that are least degraded by human impacts - on the basis of their role in climate change mitigation and biodiversity conservation. Can this new tradable asset incentivize the conservation of our last remaining high integrity forests?
