This target aims to progressively reduce the negative impacts and increase the positive impacts of business on biodiversity, and to encourage more sustainable patterns of production. To accomplish this, countries should put in place measures to encourage and enable business and financial institutions to identify and disclose their dependencies and impacts on biodiversity, and to report on these and other information, and to require this in the case of large and transnational companies and institutions:

🌿 𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥, 𝐚𝐝𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬: The target calls on Parties to develop a set of measures to encourage and enable businesses and financial institutions to undertake a set of actions to progressively reduce negative impacts on biodiversity and increase their positive impacts. Specifically, the target calls for legal, administrative or policy measures to encourage businesses to regularly monitor, assess and transparently disclose their risks, dependencies and impacts on biodiversity, to provide relevant information to consumers and to report on compliance with access and benefit-sharing regulations and measures where applicable.

🌿 𝐋𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: While this target applies to measures for all types of business it places a particular emphasis on large and transnational companies and financial institutions. These types of companies and institutions, owing to their size and areas of operation, supply and value chains and portfolios often have large net impacts on biodiversity. As such improvements in their monitoring, assessment and disclosure processes have significant potential to generate positive outcomes for biodiversity, particularly as issues associated with supply chains and portfolios are often overlooked in sustainability reports...

🌳🌊🐚 Today is the International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystem. Mangroves are vital for their rich biodiversity and their role in ensuring food security for coastal communities. To highlight this, we would like to share a story from the Chomes Marine Territory on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, showcasing the importance of mangrove ecosystems to women who gather mollusks, supporting their families and community.
