Opportunities for Pooling Resources for Conservation Trust Funds

September 4th

Session Description

Conservation Trust Funds work in complex environments in which they must liaise with their donors, governments, beneficiaries, and the finance sector to raise and generate financing to run their programmes. This requires conservation expertise and also a range of other legal, management, financial, investment, administrative and communications skills and capacities. Certain smaller CTFs struggle to operate efficiently and lack enough inhouse capacity and resources in these specialized fields. In some instances, it would be beneficial for CTFs to pool certain resources to improve efficiency and effectiveness. In this session the pooled services by the Nature Trust Alliance (NTA) will be used as a case study to explore this opportunity.
