33% of global biodiversity hotspots are located in grassland regions threatened by agricultural expansion (Kan et al., 2026).

Between 20% and 35% of the world's terrestrial carbon is stored in grasslands, ecosystems currently under increasing agricultural pressure (Kan et al., 2026).

6% of global land use change is attributed individually to countries such as Russia, India, China, and the United States (Kan et al., 2026).

The Canada Green Bond Program finances projects that contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation through investments in clean transportation, renewable energy, energy efficiency, and environmental conservation. Resources come from sovereign green bond issuances managed by the Government of Canada, allocated according to the country’s Green Bond Framework. During the 2023–2024 period, funds were directed to projects with measurable impacts on greenhouse gas emissions reduction and climate resilience enhancement. The initiative supports the transition to a low-carbon and sustainable economy. Its implementation adheres to ICMA Green Bond Principles and international environmental disclosure standards.

A pioneering Peruvian program modernizing irrigation systems in vulnerable regions through technified infrastructure, technical assistance, and institutional capacity building—enhancing water efficiency, agricultural productivity, and climate adaptation.

The project seeks to strengthen community economies in the territories of Indigenous Peoples and Nationalities, Afro-Ecuadorians, and Montubios.

Colombia Agroalimentaria Sostenible is an initiative of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MADR) focused on reducing the vulnerability of agricultural production to climate threats in order to minimize their impact on the competitiveness of Colombia's agricultural sector and to ensure an adequate and stable availability of quality food by strengthening climate risk management, while also reducing the effects of greenhouse gases and emissions from agricultural production (Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MADR), n.d.). The project seeks to shift the current paradigm of input-intensive agricultural production with limited technology adoption, aiming to reduce crop vulnerability to droughts, floods, and other climate stressors. The project is led by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, implemented by the Bioversity – CIAT Alliance, and developed in collaboration with 13 partner institutions. It is financed through a combination of financial resources from CAF (Development Bank of Latin America), the Government of Colombia, agricultural research institutions (Bioversity – CIAT Alliance, CIMMYT, and CIPAV), Colombian agricultural producer associations, and both loan and concessional resources (grants) from the Green Climate Fund (GCF). The total investment amounts to USD 99.9 million.

The Government of Brazil has developed a Framework for the Issuance of Sustainable Sovereign Bonds, establishing the basis for issuing sovereign debt linked to budget expenditures that directly contribute to the country's sustainable development. This initiative reaffirms Brazil's commitment to sustainable policies, promoting the transition towards a greener, more inclusive and equitable economy. The framework was prepared by the Sovereign Sustainable Finance Committee (CFSS) with support from the Inter-American Development Bank and the World Bank, and obtained a Second Party Opinion from Sustainalytics confirming its alignment with the principles of the International Capital Market Association (ICMA).
