    Why fight climate change<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    We know that the climate change<\/strong><\/a> have advanced rapidly. In the face of this global emergency, it is important to explore innovative and integrated approaches<\/strong> to achieve the goals set by Paris Agreement<\/strong>. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has warned that a 7.6% annual reduction in global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is crucial to limiting temperature rise to 1.5\u00b0C<\/strong> by 2030. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How Impact Investing can be an ally in this fight<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The combination of solutions High Tech<\/em> and Low Tech<\/em> emerge as a strategy to address this global challenge. Wildfires are at the center of the climate crisis<\/strong> and pose a growing threat. Today, 20% of CO2 emissions come from wildfires, accelerating the global warming<\/strong>, destroying biodiversity and putting people's lives at risk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In this context, the Impact Investment<\/strong><\/a> can play a fundamental role in generating positive change. This modality goes beyond bringing financial return<\/strong> for investors: it is a way of access to capital for businesses and initiatives that operate in production chains, ecosystems and biomes that generate a positive socio-environmental impact in the country<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What is Empathic Capital?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The Empathic Capital<\/strong><\/a> is the premise that guides the actions of Sitawi<\/strong> as Impact Investment<\/a><\/strong>. To reconcile financial logic with positive transformations in society \u2014 often anchored in projects that require long terms until they are able to work in market logic \u2014, we need various types of capital<\/strong>: the philanthropic, the patient, among others, combined in the logic we call Blended Finance<\/a><\/em><\/strong> \u2014 or hybrid finance<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    All of them, when united and centered on the needs and limitations of businesses with positive socio-environmental impact<\/a><\/strong>, can generate a more sustainable and inclusive economic future. This is the transformation made possible by Empathic Capital<\/strong>. He invites the investor to reflect on the role of capital and the possibility of its use to generate distributed wealth in a sustainable manner, thinking about the entrepreneur and his ability to generate value and positive returns for the entire community in which he is inserted and for the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
