The Net-Zero Nature-Positive Accelerator Integrated Programme provides a bold and transformative response to the overlapping crises of climate change and biodiversity loss by aligning climate and nature action, addressing these issues together.
Launched in October 2025, this is a six-year $100 million initiative that supports 12 countries to align, integrate, and accelerate their climate and nature goals advancing national and global efforts to achieve net-zero nature-positive outcomes.
It works directly with 12 countries: Chile, Costa Rica, Côte d’Ivoire, Indonesia, Mauritius, Mexico, Morocco, Nigeria, Tanzania, Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago, and Viet Nam. Other countries will be able to draw on the knowledge developed by the programme’s Global Platform.
By prioritizing the integration of climate and nature action, mobilizing investment and finance, and promoting policy and governance coherence, this programme advances national and global efforts to implement net-zero nature-positive solutions. The programme also supports a gender-responsive and socially inclusive approach.
The Net-Zero Nature-Positive Accelerator Integrated Programme is funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), led by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in partnership with the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Development Bank of Latin America (CAF), and implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), and UNEP
