The programme, funded the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, focuses on creating business cases to attract public, philanthropic and private finance, targeting sectors like agri-food, biodiversity, water forestry and landscape regeneration. Rural communities and local CSOs are the driving force. Originally running from 2019 through 2024, MoMo4C will continue to strengthen its impact in 2025.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p><em><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">Header photo: honey business in Uganda. \u00a9 Fanny Verkuijlen \/ IUCN NL<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>Implemented by IUCN NL, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tropenbos.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tropenbos International<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wwf.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WWF-NL<\/a>, MoMo4C operates in six landscapes in Ghana, Uganda, Cameroon, Indonesia and Zambia.

Currently, it includes business cases and investments worth up to 10 million USD.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>Our programme provides technical assistance and some seed funding, supports business case development for investment and works on harvesting lessons. Moreover, we focus on enablers for business in policy and regulation level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>We work in landscapes that face severe deforestation, ecosystem degradation and weak governance, making them vulnerable to climate change impacts. Indigenous and other rural communities are hit hardest by these impacts, while contributing least to their underlying drivers. Under MoMo4C they have a seat on the table to develop solutions benefitting nature and people. In each landscape, women and youth play a central role.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>We currently work in the following landscapes:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ghana: Mole Ecological Landscape (MEL) and Juabeso-Bia and Sefwi-Wiawso (JBSW)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Uganda: Murchison-Eastern Albertine Rift<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cameroon: Tri-National Dja-Odzala-Mink\u00e9b\u00e9 (TRIDOM)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Indonesia: Ketapang and Kayong Utara District (K-KU)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zambia: Zambezi River Delta Landscape<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:41px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\"><p class=\"cookiebanner_video_embed\" id=\"2fpb29js64gctmuy\"> In order to view this movie you have to accept &#8216;Social media and advertising&#8217; cookies.

In each landscape, this approach was translated into the search for and development of nature and climate projects that have the potential to grow into a business case. It has led to investments in nature-based solutions and projects contributing to nature and climate through nature-positive value chains with premium agroforestry products and waste-to-energy solutions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Relevance and coherence<\/strong>: A recent review shows that the program aligns with local and international stakeholders\u2019 needs and policies.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Innovation<\/strong>:&nbsp; It brings together relevant public, private and CSO actors in landscape partnerships that define shared ambitions and strategies.

In some cases, small size initiatives with a lack of track record and proven concept experience reluctance of investors, because risk-return profiles are too high.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Market access<\/strong>: Poor access to responsible buyers prepared to pay a fair price. &nbsp;as well as market access for only a limited number of products, often making producers dependent on one single off-taker.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Impact assessment<\/strong>: Initiatives need time to show their impact and in addition often lack the data to show impact in a way consistent with the expectations of the private and financial sectors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:21px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Way forward<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>To continue supporting business cases that provide innovative solutions to the challenges of climate change and biodiversity loss, technical assistance remains relevant. In addition, our experience shows the urgent need for local, landscape level funds, that can provide small grants and concessional loans to finance the early-stage development of business cases with positive impacts on nature and climate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>MoMo4C is creating multilevel partnerships that will allow us to link business case development to such seed capital facilities and, in a later stage, commercial private finance. This will enable scaling up within current landscapes and to new landscapes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block block-container small-12 large-offset-1 large-10\">\n<p>We will also move forward to the next phase of creating business cases strengthening agroforestry projects.
