In collaboration with the Geneva Graduate Institute’s Centre for Finance and Development, this event focuses on the potential of innovative finance as a “transformative tool” which aligns with the need for creative and impactful solutions to address pressing global challenges.
The event will showcase real-world testimonials on how leveraging innovative finance can strengthen the resilience of health systems, climate and ecosystems, and social inclusion.
The high-level plenary will demonstrate how tailored financial mechanisms have led to positive outcomes such as building robust infrastructure, funding climate adaptation projects, and supporting marginalized communities. Innovate finance has successfully deployed mechanisms and structured financial instruments to catalyse private investments; bridging investment gaps from the private sector to impact positive change as well has facilitated partnerships between governments, private sector entities, and civil society organizations to drive sustainable development projects.
