The AFOLU (Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use) sector is one of the world’s major sources of GHGs emissions, yet measures have not been taken sufficiently. On the other hand, interest in overseas deployment of GHG emission reduction technologies is growing amongJapanese private companies and startups, and some already leverage investment and financing from domestic and international financial institutions to expand abroad. In response, MAFF formulated “Initiative for Net-zero compatible with Food security through INternational expansion of Innovative TechnologY (in short, MIDORI∞INFINITY)” to mobilize public–private climate finance into the AFOLU sector. To implement this initiative, MAFF established “MIDORI Decarbonization Overseas Deployment Consortium.” This consortium seeks to attract decarbonization investment into the agri-food sector and expand markets for Japanese agri-food companies in climate-related businesses. This seminar aims to mobilizing climate finance into the AFOLU sector by showcasing collaboration between financial institutions, government agencies and the private sector, and offering forum to discuss challenges and prospects in generating projects.
