Strategic Plan

Boonville, CA

In 2023, we underwent a strategic planning process, which set up four Strategic Pillars for Blue Forest.

Strategic Pillars at Blue Forest are the articulation of our areas of priority for the next five years. These initiatives are setting the stage for where we will be focusing our resources through 2029.

Organizational Capacity Building

We are advancing Blue Forest from its startup roots to a resilient organization

Blue Forest has grown from proving the model of the Forest Resilience Bond and conservation finance to replicating, scaling, and leveraging our expertise in the field to develop additional financial models addressing ecosystem restoration. To achieve our mission, it is essential to continue to develop our team and strengthen available resources to bring us from our initial form as a startup to a robust organization.
Ecosystem Restoration Financing

We catalyze capital toward the restoration of ecosystems on the landscape scale

The wildfire crisis is one of the greatest land management challenges of our time. We believe it is critical to identify financial solutions that enable landscape restoration to occur at the pace and scale needed to achieve long-term resilience. Sustainable financing is essential to ensuring that the delivery of on-the-ground holistic ecosystem restoration can be replicated and scaled. We bring people, finance, and science together to develop financial products that are best positioned to restore and protect ecosystems.
Science to Advance Ecosystem and Community Resilience

We develop and leverage best in class science in order to deliver impactful solutions for nature and people

Our value of being grounded in science underpins all our work at Blue Forest. Our scientific and conservation expertise and partnerships underlie the structure of our financial vehicles and our community collaborations. A deep understanding and application of both Western Science and Traditional Ecological Knowledge is essential to effective landscape-scale restoration.
Culture of Empowerment

We are building a culture where our employees thrive

Delivering on Blue Forest’s mission requires an empowered high-performing team. We must continue to work to ensure that: we are supporting our staff to excel; attracting curious, innovative, and impactful new staff; and actively widening the pipeline of talent at the intersection of the finance and conservation fields. We will continue to build a culture of empowerment and inclusion, where staff feel able to be their authentic selves, set ambitious goals, and take ownership and accountability for their work. To develop this culture, our employees need to be confident, capable, and well-supported by the organization.
