About The Event
The Island Finance Forum had brought together senior financiers, development partners, and regulators to share and exchange expertise on sustainable and inclusive financial structures in island communities. The Forum aimed to highlight the unique financial challenges faced by global island communities and the solutions they had found for sustainable economic recovery and inclusive growth in a post-pandemic world.
This free virtual event had been accessible to attendees from across the globe, offering a variety of interactive sessions. These sessions included networking opportunities where participants could meet and exchange ideas face-to-face or in small groups. Attendees could choose which topics and sessions they actively participated in, and after the event, the attendees have the opportunity to watch on the session recordings.
The Island Finance Forum had achieved several key goals:
- Bridged the gap between sustainable development practitioners and financial stakeholders.
- Helped island stakeholders access expert knowledge and financial opportunities available to them.
- Showcased the economic opportunities available from investing in the sustainability sector on islands, particularly focusing on impact investing and ESG
