Abstract

Highlights

  • The guidelines propose a four-stage approach to develop a corporate-level biodiversity strategic plan: ( ) identifying priority pressures and dependencies across company operations and supply chains, and the most important species, habitats and ecosystem services to protect; ( ) defining company ambitions through a vision, goals, objectives and strategies; ( ) choosing scalable, linked indicators to monitor delivery of company ambitions; and ( ) implementing strategies, collecting data against a monitoring plan, and using and sharing data to facilitate adaptive management

  • A key element is the pressure–state–response–benefit indicator model, which has become central to biodiversity monitoring for conservation projects and the Sustainable Development Goals

  • A unique feature of the IUCN approach is that it encourages companies to name the species, habitats and ecosystem services they will focus on, a level of specificity that will enhance the feasibility and measurability of their ambitions and the quality of their monitoring

Summary

Introduction

The guidelines propose a four-stage approach to develop a corporate-level biodiversity strategic plan: ( ) identifying priority pressures and dependencies across company operations and supply chains, and the most important species, habitats and ecosystem services to protect; ( ) defining company ambitions through a vision, goals, objectives and strategies; ( ) choosing scalable, linked indicators to monitor delivery of company ambitions; and ( ) implementing strategies, collecting data against a monitoring plan, and using and sharing data to facilitate adaptive management. A key element is the pressure–state–response–benefit indicator model, which has become central to biodiversity monitoring for conservation projects and the Sustainable Development Goals. A unique feature of the IUCN approach is that it encourages companies to name the species, habitats and ecosystem services they will focus on, a level of specificity that will enhance the feasibility and measurability of their ambitions and the quality of their monitoring.
