Tools and policies for biodiversity
International and national biodiversity goals are prompting action from governments, businesses, and citizens, but not quickly enough. Biodiversity is declining faster than our progress in protecting it.
At Rebel, we help develop policies and tools that make a real difference for biodiversity. We go beyond simply protecting existing nature, we work to embed biodiversity into broader policy areas like water, housing, and infrastructure. Because biodiversity isn’t a stand-alone issue, it’s deeply connected to everything.
We focus on how investments are made, the systems of funding and financing. That means reducing negative impact, enabling positive outcomes, aligning incentives, and designing new financial instruments that increase natural value.
We’ve worked with a wide range of (policy) instruments, not by working against the market, but by using its power. We believe in rewarding meaningful action and good intentions, and in calling out delay, greenwashing, and empty promises.
Our practical experience with the market helps us see where the real opportunities are, and where policies may be standing in the way. That’s how we can advise on effective measures and instruments that truly support biodiversity.
