Forest and Coastal Resilience Finance
What Fiji has achieved so far through its Biodiversity Finance Plan.
A coastal fisheries finance and incentives package combines sustainability-linked loans, eco-labelling, fish wardens, and alternative livelihoods to promote sustainable fishing.
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.
Opportunities identified in the national Biodiversity Finance Plan, with the finance each one needs and the result it is expected to deliver.
