Slash-and-burn agriculture still affects roughly a third of the land in Lao PDR, degrading soil health and releasing massive amounts of carbon. With support from UNDP, The Green is providing a viable, climate-friendly alternative through free-range poultry farming, an approach that requires significantly less land, restores the soil, and offers a sustainable income for rural smallholder families.
The Climate Venture Scaler is a flagship UNDP initiative under the Climate Finance Network, in partnership with Impact Investment Exchange (IIX), that helps growth-stage enterprises in Southeast Asia strengthen their business models, improve financial readiness, and connect with impact investors. Supported by the UK, Sweden, and Norway, the program accelerates the pipeline of investable solutions to drive climate resilience, green innovation, and gender-inclusive growth.
