The IFAD issued its first-ever sustainable bonds in June 2022, as part of a strategy to channel more funding to the world’s poorest people, who live in the rural areas of developing countries and are essential to feeding the world today and tomorrow. Moreover, with climate change accelerating, food insecurity rising and instability growing, IFAD is acting and innovating to ensure developing countries and vulnerable populations have the financing they need to develop and take climate action.

During the presentation, the IFAD will highlight how the proceeds of its first sustainable bonds have been invested and how the investments are improving the lives and livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of small-scale farmers. In addition, IFAD will also open the London Stock Exchange markets at 08:00 on the same morning.
