About the Event
The Caribbean Biodiversity Fund is delighted to host the Third Caribbean Conservation Finance Congress (CCFC 2025) on July 30 – 31, 2025. The event will bring together a cadre of experts and key stakeholders to highlight the critical role of conservation trust funds in driving measurable impact toward global biodiversity targets at national and regional levels. This year’s focus is especially timely as the global community intensifies efforts to meet the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework targets by 2030.
Conservation trust funds across the Caribbean have emerged as powerful vehicles for translating international commitments into tangible conservation outcomes. The Congress will showcase innovative financing mechanisms, governance structures, and impact measurement frameworks that enable conservation trust funds to effectively support national governments in meeting their biodiversity commitments while ensuring sustainable development.
