Wildlife Conservation Bond Project

Wildlife Conservation Bond Project

 

The South African Wildlife Conservation Bond Project is financed through a grant from the Global Environmental Facility (GEF) and is administered by the World Bank.  The Project will utilise an innovative financing model for direct finance to benefit the conservation of black rhinos through the world’s first Wildlife Conservation Bond.

 

The Project consists of four components, which will

1) enhance rhino conservation, natural resource management and community priority investments,

2) support enabling conditions, including coordination and research,

3) Project management, and

4) provide a success payment linked to the expected net increase in rhino population.
