Reflecting on Progress | Celebrating Impact | Launching 25 Years of Conservation Finance

The ECOTRUST Annual Stakeholders’ Event scheduled for Thursday, 19th December 2024 — presents a unique opportunity for reflection, learning, and connection. This year’s event holds special significance as we not only review progress on our 2022–2026 Strategic Plan but also launch celebrations to mark 25 years of ECOTRUST as a leader in conservation financing.

Why Attend?

This annual gathering brings together partners, supporters, and stakeholders to:

  • Share key updates and impact stories from our restoration and conservation initiatives.

  • Gather valuable feedback that helps refine our strategic direction.

  • Celebrate the vital role that smallholder farmers continue to play in restoring degraded landscapes — a grassroots movement that’s drawing increased investment and recognition.

What to Expect

During the event, we’ll showcase our work in:

  • Channeling financial flows to address the critical intersection of climate change and biodiversity conservation.

  • Promoting community-led ecosystem restoration that improves both livelihoods and landscapes.

  • Highlighting the success of community-owned green enterprises supported through the ECOTRUST Business Incubation Program.

We will also officially launch ECOTRUST@25, kicking off a year-long celebration of innovation, resilience, and partnerships that have shaped ECOTRUST’s journey as a leading force in conservation finance in Uganda and beyond.
