SUMMARY
The Virgn Islands Trust Fund Board looks forward to showcasing the work undertaken to establish and operationalise this innovative fund at the Global Sustainable Islands Summit 2026.
This event presents an important platform to engage with regional and international partners, raise awareness of the Trust Fund’s mission, and foster strategic collaborations that will support the mobilisation, management, and disbursement of funding for priority climate change adaptation and mitigation projects.
