Life on land & below water

The evidence of massive extinction of natural species and the loss of biodiversity caused by man activities is one of the most important challenges for human kind. We collaborate to develop a common vision on financing coherent with the preservation of biodiversity and natural resources through tracking methodologies and biodiversity impact reporting of public projects and banks’ investments.

Reducing inequalities

Reducing inequalities is widely regarded as a key catalyst for sustainable development, economic growth and fight against poverty across the world. We are committed to join forces in reducing Income Inequalities, Promoting Universal Social and Economic Inclusion, Raising awareness and ensuring commitment to close persistent Gender Gaps and to promote financing in line with the protection of more fragile population such as displaced communities.

Cooperation for development

Strengthened cooperation is required to achieve the SDGS through the promotion of South-South Dialogue and triangular cooperation. We contribute in rethinking a multidimensional concept of development supported by a renewed strategic framework using innovative data and information systems.
