Biodiversity credits are being hailed as a major innovation in financing nature, with projections of up to USD 2 billion annually by 2030. Yet, these instruments build on decades of market-based approaches that have often failed to deliver on their ecological and financial promises.
This presentation explores a different perspective—focusing not on why these instruments persist, but on what they do in practice. By examining the everyday organisational work behind biodiversity markets, the project reveals how small, routine actions help sustain the illusion of progress and possibility.
