Several biodiversity commitment frameworks exist such as the Cancun Pledge promoted by the Global Partnership for Business & Biodiversity; the newly launched Business for Nature coalition promotes such commitments.
Among these, act4nature (http://www.act4nature.com/en) has triggered a change in both scale and nature of action in favour of biodiversity from companies, with commitments signed by the CEOs and reporting obligations.
What emerges from this initiative? What concrete solutions arise from these voluntary approaches by businesses? What is business really bound to do or not?
This session will be the occasion to present the outcomes of act4nature’s first commitments and new post 2020 commitments and to answer these questions.
