How corporate transparency helps protect biodiversity


Big Room

Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the world’s leading impact reporting standard setter, discusses the GRI Biodiversity pilot. The pilot shows that reporting on biodiversity impacts with the new GRI Standard provides relevant data for biodiversity protection without an excessive burden for companies.

Governments around the world are stepping up their efforts to protect biodiversity, while also protecting the competitiveness of business. The updated GRI 101 Biodiversity Standard provides governments and businesses with useful decision-making information, to (cost) effectively deal with their biodiversity related impacts. In this interactive session, we will hear from companies which have piloted the new standard: their experiences with data collection and how the information is used to inform their company’s strategy.
