A new key biodiversity platform for cross sectoral collaboration
For its inaugural launch, World Biodiversity Summit will help define what world leaders and the private sector in biodiversity and climate action need to do in the medium and long term to achieve sustainable development and hinder further biodiversity loss, focusing on partnerships and investment mechanisms as levers of progress. World Biodiversity Summit is a platform for responding to accelerating biodiversity loss, by using the Paris Agreement as a framework to learn from, promoting relevant solutions, innovations, and leadership networks, strengthening nature restoration and conservation. Nature-based solutions will be highlighted, from specificecosystems to global possibilities.
Driving Leadership for a Net-Zero Economy
Market Focused Coalitions & Partnerships

Member of the

Driving Leadership for a Net-Zero Economy
World Climate Network is a C-level network that spans the globe and includes governments, business, finance and civil society. We plan engagement activities for our members throughout the year. Our activities serve our members in their aims for a swift transition to a net-zero economy and to meet the global goals outlined in the Paris Agreement.
At the heart of all our activities is our community. With our partners and members, we identify those coalitions, partnerships or initiatives that should be scaled up. We match stakeholders based on their profiles and strategies. We promote partnerships and initiatives through our network, through summits communications platforms and through selected partners.
The Network facilitates the building of impactful coalitions in order to develop innovative solutions and policies, and spark bold investments in climate. In 2019, for example, we facilitated US$55 billion in climate commitments from the Danish pension funds in our network. Going forward, we aim to build on the impactful coalitions we have developed so far.
Coalition Building & Partnerships


Climate Investment Coalition
World Climate Network also includes an unparalleled finance network through the Climate Investment Coalition. The Coalition engages with leading institutional investors, governments and other stakeholders in climate finance to mobilise
commitments for climate investments and reporting, and to share innovative best practices in climate finance. At COP26, it announced US$130 billion from Nordic and UK pension funds, to be invested in clean energy and climate investments by 2030 and to be reported on annually.
