Discover how smallholder farmers, the backbone of food production in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia, are battling climate change and economic instability. Despite producing a significant portion of the global food supply, these farmers receive a mere 0.8% of climate financing, leaving a $170 billion annual funding gap. This session unveils the power of catalytic capital and innovative solutions to bridge this gap, with initiatives like the Catalytic Climate Finance Facility connecting global impact capital to rural communities.

Join us to explore how NGOs, microfinance institutions, and impact investment companies are revolutionizing agriculture through blended finance and regenerative agronomy. Learn how the growing demand for carbon credits can drive capital to developing economies, and discuss strategies to ensure smallholder farmers, especially women, access the resources they need for climate adaptation.
