We are delighted to witness the official launch of the Tropical Forest Forever Facility – TFFF.
The TFFF represents one of the most groundbreaking, innovative, and impactful financial instruments developed in the 21st century for tropical forest nations and the Global South. It is truly a game-changer for sustainable finance and global climate action.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Brazil for hosting and leading this visionary initiative. The TFFF has already received endorsements from 53 countries, including 19 potential sovereign investors — a testament to its global significance and momentum.
We also warmly congratulate the partner countries and donors for their leadership and commitments:
– Norway – USD 3 billion over ten years (subject to conditions)
– Brazil – USD 1 billion (reconfirmed)
– Indonesia – USD 1 billion (reconfirmed)
– Portugal – USD 1 million
– France – up to €500 million by 2030 (under specific conditions)
– The Netherlands – USD 5 million for the Secretariat
– Germany – full endorsement, with financial commitments to be discussed tomorrow between President Lula and Chancellor Merz
At Lion’s Head Global Partners, we are immensely proud to have supported and worked alongside the Government of Brazil on the financial structuring of the facility and in the development of this landmark initiative. Supporting and contributing to transformative, high-impact solutions like the TFFF is deeply embedded in our ethos.
This marks a new chapter for climate finance, forest conservation, and equitable global partnerships.
