Summary
Investors, corporates, and market stakeholders are increasingly recognizing that nature-related concepts, from biodiversity to natural capital to ecosystem dependencies, are inseparable from a robust climate strategy. As we look ahead to the United Nations Biodiversity Conference (COP16) at the end of October, our next Beyond ESG webinar will explore the critical question of how companies and investors can gain the knowledge and capacity to understand, manage and disclose on nature-related risks and opportunities.
During this webinar, global thought leaders will discuss:
- How businesses and finance can contribute to a nature positive future
- What nature positive opportunities mean for public-private partnerships
- What data, tools and frameworks can be leveraged for capacity building, re-orienting investments, and knowledge sharing
- How adoption of reporting and disclosure frameworks supports increased investments in nature
