What Fiji has achieved so far through its Biodiversity Finance Plan.

US$3.3 million investment needs for transformative impact by 2030

A coastal fisheries finance and incentives package combines sustainability-linked loans, eco-labelling, fish wardens, and alternative livelihoods to promote sustainable fishing.

Scaling-up Biodiversity-Positive Coastal Fisheries Finance

By embedding sustainability conditions in fishing loans and introducing eco-labelling, it reduces enforcement costs while improving management across 200,000+ hectares of coastal and marine areas and supporting the recovery of reef fish biomass—aligning finance and markets to reward sustainable practices.
