Revalue Ecosystems
Human use and transformation of natural ecosystems is rapidly exceeding our planet’s capacity to sustain the ecological conditions and services people need to survive and thrive.
The Rockefeller Foundation pursues robust cross-sector approaches and market-based solutions that account for the significant, yet often overlooked, value of ecosystems in development decisions and harnesses them as an asset for smart development, economic and social progress, and long-term resilience. For one example, click below to see how the city of Surat, India, is working with the Foundation’s Asian Cities Climate Change Resilience Network to mitigate the negative effects of climate change—and see the breadth of work in the Revalue Ecosystems focus area.
