Biodiversity is essential for the processes that support all life on Earth, and forms the foundation of our economy, and healthy and prosperous societies. It is critical to our well-being and livelihoods, and its dramatic decline currently poses a serious systemic risk to our economy. Following the momentum of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, the year 2024 is critical for biodiversity as businesses are being called to take actions to improve their relations with nature in the run up to COP 16.
However, many businesses are not fully aware of the extent to which they depend on biodiversity and ecosystems, or of the impact they have on them. Nor are they always able to anticipate the newcoming regulatory approaches and the material risks that they may entail.
The Biodiversity Basics Webinars, to be held on October 24th from 14:00 to 15:00 CEST will help organisations get up to speed with the fundamentals of biodiversity and the policy landscape by showcasing actionable changes to preserve biodiversity and restore natural capital and encouraging transformative action to future-proof businesses.
