Financing strategies for integrated landscape management
Global Landscapes ForumWarsaw, Poland November 16, 2013
Elements of integrated landscape management1. Shared or agreed management objectives encompass multiple benefits (the full
range of goods and services needed) from the landscape.
2. Field, farm and forest practices are designed to contribute to multiple objectives including human wellbeing, food and fiber production, climate change mitigation, and conservation of biodiversity and ecosystem services.
3. Ecological, social, and economic interactions among different parts of the landscape are managed to realize positive synergies among interests and actors or to mitigate negative trade-offs.
4. Collaborative, community-engaged processes for dialogue, planning, negotiating and monitoring decisions are in place.
5. Markets and public policies are shaped to achieve the diverse set of landscape objectives and institutional requirements.
ILM activities in need of finance● On-farm sustainable agricultural management coordinated with
other activities in a landscape
● Landscape-scale interventions related to ecosystem protection and restoration
● Institutions that enable landscape coordination and create incentives for ILM
● ILM finance encompasses● direct investment in public goods ● enabling investments● asset investments that creates tangible value

●Gaps in understanding how landscape initiatives access finance
Project Objectives
1. Improve understanding of the financial case for ILM in a variety of contexts.
2. Improve understanding of the barriers to ILM finance.
3. Identify strategies for public and private financing institutions to work with landscape stakeholders to finance ILM.
4. Mobilize dialogue with financing institutions to improve strategies / mechanisms to support ILM.

Key recommendations for climate policy makers and program managers
1. Coordinate climate investments with those of other relevant sectors to support ILM.
2. Design climate adaptation and mitigation programs to support the enabling institutions required to attract appropriate private investment to ILM.
3. Create multi-objective investment mechanisms.
4. Formulate financing strategies based on input from landscape stakeholders.
5. Develop tools to calculate risk and return across multiple dimensions, over time.
