Action Unlocked: Driving Corporate Change with Validated Science-Based Targets for Nature
Big Room
The Science Based Targets Network (SBTN) shares corporate insights and outcomes from its year-long target validation pilot, while its new target validation host, the Accountability Accelerator, outlines plans for its upcoming target validation services.
In 2023, a group of trail-blazing companies began piloting the first science-based targets for nature, including testing the target validation process. Through this corporate pilot, SBTN has demonstrated the viability of science-based targets for nature, with the first companies progressing towards bold, ambitious action to halt and reverse nature loss. The pilot also provided SBTN with valuable insights into improving the validation process, leading to the adoption of an independent, mid-term validation model to be led by the Accountability Accelerator (the Accelerator).
At this event, SBTN and participating pilot companies will share key insights from the pilot and outline next steps. The Accelerator will present its plans for launching a new target validation service, including its collaboration with Deloitte on developing a Validation Platform designed to ensure a secure and rigorous submission and target validation process. Additionally, the Accelerator will highlight its adherence to best practice governance and assurance guidance from ISEAL.
