PAS COACT

The evening will be opened by a third event host, NOW Partners Foundation (NOW). Its chair Walter Link will introduce the event and introduce its keynote speaker, COP30 President Ambassador Corrêa do Lago who will address the integration of the COP multilateral negotiations process with concrete action that changes realities on the ground. NOW will also introduce one of TERRA’s core initiatives, the Global Academy for Agroecology and Productive Forests (GA) that offers capacity building for TERRA’s 5 levers.

GA was co-founded by NOW with some of the world’s largest and most successful agroecological innovators. In Africa, Asia and Latin America, its over 2 million farmers already outperform conventional agriculture by integrating the regeneration of nature and society with better financial results for family farmers and rural economies. NOW will also address how to scale these and other initiatives with blended finance solutions it develops with farmer organizations, public and private grant funders, and international investors.
