Why capital is still not reaching many of the projects that need it most, at the right time, in the right form, or on terms that reflect how NbS projects are developed
The three reasons projects struggle to access capital: costs materialise before revenue, capital arrives later in the lifecycle, and social value is not fully recognised
What project development actually costs, and why securing funding is the most underestimated cost of all
The pre-offtake catch-22, and how the "missing middle" becomes a structural exclusion rather than a funding gap
Four practical shifts for investors and developers, from earlier-stage capital to proportionate diligence and genuine partnership
Reflections from project developers navigating this space, including Tree Aid, Kijani Forestry, Medius Earth and The Kilimanjaro Project
