Incentivising a race to the top: A focus on corporates and complex supply chains


Big Room

Supply chain traceability is a major hurdle for corporates trying to achieve nature-positive outcomes. This session will explore the challenges of tracking nature impacts in complex supply chains and discuss how corporates and financiers can iteratively move towards increasing the proportion of their value chain that is traceable, engaging material value chain stakeholders on the need to apply entry level (at least) and standard (recommended) metrics for nature. We will cover: 1. The importance of tracking nature positive outcomes at location-level, in order to ensure credibility, manage greenwashing and misinformation 2. The importance of value chain actors and other stakeholders in creating an enabling environment for incentivising a ‘race to the top’
