Restorative marine economies: a framework for mobilising ecosystem-level investments
This summary explains the key concepts of restorative economies and outlines an impact investment framework to guide questions and steps when mobilising investment for restoration activities (October 2023)
The framework is informed by ecosystem-based marine management and two research reports:
- Encouraging coastal and marine restorative economies in Aotearoa New Zealand
- Financing restorative economies in Aotearoa New Zealand’s marine and coastal space
‘Restorative economy’ describes an economy that combines business activities with environmentally sustainable and restorative practices that respond to community needs and iwi aspirations.
