#EDD21 - STAND INTERVIEW: The Ocean Risk and Resilience Action Alliance (ORRAA)

The interview discussed the Ocean Risk and Resilience Action Alliance (ORRAA), a unique multi-stakeholder alliance, convening collaborative action and capital to secure positive outcomes for the Ocean and the communities that depend on it. It brings together governments, the finance and insurance sectors, environmental organizations and stakeholders from the Global South to realise the value of the Ocean, Earth’s greatest asset. It aims to drive $500 million of investment into marine and coastal nature-based solutions by 2030, and to surface 15+ novel finance products by 2025. By catalysing, scaling, and accelerating investment into natural capital, ORRAA’s work will help to improve ocean stewardship, resilience and adaptation; achieve the UN SDGs; and reform capitalism through the impact economy.
