The Biodiversity Finance Plan (BFP) summarizes all findings from the national biodiversity finance review process guided by the BIOFIN approach. It attempts to present a coherent and comprehensive national approach to biodiversity finance that encompasses a full suite of finance solutions, well beyond the mobilization of new and additional resources, engaging the public sector, private sector, and civil society. The goal is to produce a nationally validated Biodiversity Finance Plan that proposes steps to implement a mix of finance solutions to expand and improve the country’s biodiversity finance and achieve national biodiversity targets. The BFP offers a comprehensive array of financial solutions and implementation strategies aimed at assisting the Government in urgently addressing the US$60 million biodiversity financing gap identified by the BIOFIN research in Uzbekistan. If fully implemented under the best-case scenario, the proposed BFP has the potential to mobilize up to $3,6 billion by 2034, making a significant contribution to the achievement of national biodiversity conservation objectives.
