HideDescription
The aim of this session is to enable an exchange between businesses, policymakers and conservation organizations on an effective Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. The session will discuss the reflections and suggestions from BfN and its partners to improve GBF draft 1. We will explore how policymakers can provide a supportive enabling environment for business that will help delivering positive outcomes for nature and people. Opening remarks will be provided by both Diane Holdorf (WBCSD, Chair of Business for Nature’s Strategic Advisory Group) and Basile le Havre (Co-chairs of the CBD-OEWG). Representatives from both business and government will share reflections on positive examples of business action and opportunities to further build the enabling environment for nature positive action by business. We will also discuss how we can further grow the business commitments and action, to show negotiators that a growing group of businesses is willing to commit to action.
