Investing in nature: a plan to support investment in biodiversity and climate adaptation in Scotland

Purpose and Aims

This Biodiversity Investment Plan (the Plan) is a plan of action to support the creation of a nature finance system that enables funding and finance to flow into high integrity biodiversity outcomes.

It will support delivery of our Strategic Biodiversity Framework Vision and Outcomes, and the Scottish National Adaptation Plan 3 (SNAP 3) by identifying practical actions which will help target both public and private investment on the delivery of biodiversity priorities.

These actions will be relevant to a range of organisations, emphasising that all sectors have a part to play, spanning the rural and urban, public, private and third sector and consider different contexts from land to sea, and a wide range of tenures including farmers, crofters and community landowners.
