In line with IUCN’s work plan 2017-2020 and, especially the IUCN Business and Biodiversity program the focus of the IUCN CEM Thematic Group Business and Ecosystem Management (TG B&EM) embraces the transformation of the way business values, manages and invests in nature, highlighting the opportunities and benefits of a more sustainable approach. This Thematic Group will focus on the question how to create long-term business commitment on the ground for ecosystem management.
Building on our experiences with business and the 4 returns framework we have learned that creating a clear language and a framework that is understood by business is the key to successful implementation on the ground.
Please read the concept of activity plan ‘From profit maximisation to multiple returns’ that is now under consideration with the members of the TG B&EM.
