Scotish Natural Heritage Creates Biodiversity Challenge Fund Inspired by IPBES Global Assessment
English
Scottish Natural Heritage, the public body responsible for Scotland’s Natural Heritage, has created the Biodiversity Challenge Fund in an effort to support nature-based solutions that address the climate and biodiversity crises. The fund comes in response to the IPBES Global Assessment and “the high-level priorities of the fund align with the IPBES direct drivers of biodiversity loss.” The first round of funding was confirmed in June 2019, enabling 14 projects across Scotland to share a total of £1.8 million over a two-year period. The second round will be implemented during the 2020-2021 fiscal year and has been boosted with £2 million of additional funds from the UK government.
