Nature Positive Strategy: What Should Your Sector’s Priority Actions Be?

Thursday, 18 January, 2024, 10:00-11:30 CET

Faced with the intertwined challenges of climate change and nature loss, businesses urgently need to take action to transform and innovate their operations and value chain. While 83% of Fortune Global 500 companies have climate change targets, only 5% of companies have assessed their impacts on nature, with less than 1% understanding their dependencies. A robust nature strategy with sector-specific understanding is the foundation for companies to meaningfully contribute to halting and reversing nature loss by 2030.

In the lead-up to UNCBD COP16 in 2024, this session will mobilize business ambition, analyse the necessary element of a nature strategy, signpost available resources, and identify key barriers for implementation and uptake.
