NGO in Belgium
The objective of NET Africa is to work in partnership with key stakeholders who are engaged in understanding the interactions between the economy and the environment. We focus on developing financial/investment solutions and innovations to address biodiversity challenges in Africa. Biodiversity finance and investment can be directed towards climate change mitigation and adaptation. We work in partnership with a number of key stakeholders with an interest in the interactions between biodiversity and the economy. We have a particular interest in the interactions between biodiversity, gender and the economy in Africa. Examples of projects under biodiversity finance: - Carbon Offset Projects - actors or key stakeholders invest in a forest, conservation, and afforestation for compensating the destruction of the atmosphere caused by greenhouse gas emissions. - Biodiversity Offset Projects - actors invest in the creation of equivalent forest habitat for a specific species.
