The Ministry of Ecology and Environment of China guided the development of the Business Handbook for Biodiversity Conservation, which was supported by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), Business for Nature (BfN), World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), Shenzhen One Planet Foundation, International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Society of Entrepreneurs and Ecology, and the Hubei Yang Foundation.
The Handbook is divided into four sections that introduce the value of biodiversity, its current state, and its relationship to business activities, the background, importance, and necessity of business engagement in biodiversity conservation, the core steps of business engagement in biodiversity conservation, and the most recent trends in business engagement in biodiversity conservation.
The Business Biodiversity Conservation Cases collection includes 23 best practices chosen from hundreds of companies worldwide. The case studies were chosen from various industries and sizes with the goal of providing diverse conservation pathways, highlighting feasibility, and allowing enterprises to exchange and learn from one another. The Cases also include more practical actions with an open attitude and document the business’s sustainable transformation process.
