Financing Sustainable Food Systems: PDBs as Catalysts of New Investment Models

The agri-food sector is one of the largest economic sectors globally with huge significance for livelihoods, a large environmental footprint, and massive untapped business potential. To place the sector on a more sustainable, productive, and inclusive path, in line with the SDGs, PDBs operating in the sector must mobilize finance from different sources, including development, climate and commercial finance. This event will bring together experts from agricultural banks, farmers representatives and the International Fund for Agricultural Development to showcase innovative approaches to strengthen and leverage this catalytic role. It will energize, inspire, and launch an agenda for learning and action.

European and Global Leadership in Paris Alignment: Commitment to Action!

Financing in Common: All Stakeholders to Join Forces with Public Development Banks (PDBs) A coalition of Public Development Banks can contribute to the transformation of the financial system. Yet PDBs alone cannot lead a systemic shift towards green and sustainable finance. They have to join forces with other stakeholders for a worldwide economic recovery aligned with the SDGs and the Paris Agreement. How can we contribute to aligning all financial flows to the Paris Agreement and the SDGs? What is the best way to leverage each actor’s expertise? How to coordinate public and private sector efforts?

Accelerating Investment for Climate Adaptation and Resilience The event will bring together financial institutions with a public mandate, governments, the private sector, the Global Centre for Adaptation and other key organisations, to identify ways for accelerating private sector finance for adaptation and resilience. The event provides the launch pad for greater public private collaboration within the context of the international COVID-19 response to stimulate private sector investments and catalyse domestic markets for the business solutions needed to address local adaptation and resilience needs, including supporting those that are most vulnerable to climate impacts.

Key Role of Public Equity in Financing Both the Post-Covid-19 Recovery and Responsible Investment How can public investors provide concrete measures to cope with the crisis while contributing to long-term transformations towards a more resilient economy? The massive use of debt to finance the economic recovery will not be efficient unless it is linked with capital injections to support businesses and developmental projects. Equity financing and the specific role of public long-term investors will be key to reconcile the economic recovery with a more inclusive and sustainable development. The local, European and international solutions created and implemented by the French Caisse des Dépôts and its partners to contribute to social and environmental transitions will be presented.

Social Investment for People, Planet and Prosperity

The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed the vulnerability in our societies to the mutually reinforcing impacts of growing inequalities, environmental degradation and climate change. Social investment can strengthen societal resilience by simultaneously generating economic, employment, social inclusion and environmental benefits. Since 2008, however, it has fallen short of mounting needs, particularly at the local level. This event calls for more and better social investment, especially in infrastructure, as part of an integrated response to the Covid-19 crisis, the climate emergency, and rising social inequalities. It focuses on the challenges faced by local authorities, and proposes a renewed role of PDBs.

The speakers will be invited to address issues such as: How can SDBs enhance their performance? How can they connect their role and products to the new sustainable finance agenda?

Building Back Better with a Biodiversity-Positive Economy The management of biodiversity and ecosystems and their contributions to people well-being and the global economy is not just an environment issue but an overarching and cross-cutting issue for sustainability, resilience and building back better in the context of unseen impacts of the Covid-19 crisis. The situation is felt by most global and national institutions and many influential individuals as a call to link human development and planet preservation in a more practical and efficient manner, through long-term approaches to development finance and public budgeting that take better account of environmental imperatives and the preservation of the ecosystem base of all human livelihoods.
