Conservation Strategy Fund (CSF) finds solutions to the world's conservation challenges through the strategic use of economics.

https://linktr.ee/conservationstrategyfund CSF is the leading organization advancing conservation solutions powered by economics. CSF analysts have proven the value of protected areas, shown how to build infrastructure at lower cost and with less damage, and nurtured local sustainable businesses. Over $20 billion in development investments have been impacted, resulting in improved conservation of over 20 million acres. Our programs have reached over 1,800 professionals in over 650 organizations, based in 85+ countries. Trainings now include custom courses for marine ecosystems, climate change, protected areas, enterprise and infrastructure, among other themes. Formats are now specially tailored for emerging economists, government officials and conservation leaders, as well as general conservation audiences. All this has helped bring about a sea of change in conservation: wide acceptance of the strategic importance of economics for success.

Durante su participación en RedLAC 2026, Alfonso Malky Harb, Director para Latinoamérica de Conservation Strategy Fund (CSF), resaltó que el problema del financiamiento de la naturaleza NO es la falta de capital. En el mundo hay billones de dólares buscando rendimientos e impactos positivos. El verdadero cuello de botella es la falta de estructuración, es decir, la capacidad de transformar las funciones y beneficios de la naturaleza en flujos de caja y activos de riesgo-retorno que el mercado financiero tradicional pueda evaluar, empaquetar e invertir.

🌎 At Conservation Strategy Fund, we are proud to support research that connects economics and conservation to deepen our understanding of the challenges facing Bolivia's forests.

We are especially grateful to Rodrigo Gonzales Zuazo, economist on our Bolivia team, for presenting his research on the macroeconomics of deforestation in Bolivia at the Nature and the Macroeconomy Conference in Santiago, Chile.

His work takes a closer look at the relationship between agricultural productivity and forest loss, highlighting how gains in productivity can sometimes create stronger incentives for land conversion.

We are proud to support Rodrigo and our Bolivia team as they bring new perspectives to the conversation around conservation and sustainable development. 🌿
