IUCN CEO Summit - Moving from commitment to action: building a nature-positive future

Why attend
Business and finance leaders will unveil how they are scaling up action to address biodiversity loss and climate change, and debate how collective action - across sectors and value chains - can deliver innovative and ambitious outcomes that will enable the transition to an inclusive, nature-positive future.
HideDescription
As the world strives to recover from the global pandemic, it is essential that society does not return to "business as usual" and instead ensures that future policies and investments address the urgent and inextricably linked biodiversity and climate change crises. The case for valuing nature -- and the critical role that business must play to safeguard biodiversity -- has never been stronger. Increasingly, businesses are responding and rapidly moving from commitments to action. But are these actions sufficient? What more is needed, and how can IUCN help them meet their sustainability goals? This session will provide thought-provoking responses and inspiring examples from business leaders as well as IUCN's Members.
