After an introductory session on offsets, this one day conference will focus on how to create incentives that will encourage developers to pursue biodiversity offsets. The meeting will cover a range of issues pertinent to biodiversity offsets in the United States and around the world and will explore issues related to marine and coastal offsets and the legal, institutional and financial aspects of implementing offsets successfully over the long term. The workshop will bring together experts on biodiversity offsets from around the globe, including innovators and practitioners from private, public, NGO, community, government and financial sectors.
