Since 2006, we have been selecting and publishing the annual list of top 10 CSR events for 14 years. China Sustainability Tribune presents you the Top 10 International CSR Events in 2019.
NO.6 "Business for Nature" initiative pre-launched globally
On June 13, the "Business for Nature" initiative was launched at the 14th International CSR Forum. This event is the global pre-launching, with the purpose to introduce the “Business for Nature” initiative to Chinese enterprises, encourage them to voluntarily make commitments and join the Business for Nature Coalition, and build a platform of joint actions for global enterprises. In early 2019, the "Business for Nature" Coalition was established with the support of the Secretariat of the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity. The founders include the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), We Mean Business Coalition, and the World Economic Forum.
Reason for listing:
Enterprises are an important force for the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity. However, there was no such a global and authoritative platform for enterprises’ participation. "Business for Nature" has emerged as the times require to provide support for those enterprises intending to protect the ecology in their business operation, and call on more enterprises to understand the importance of natural capital. Human beings should not give up the right to pursue a better life simply to protect themselves, nor can they sacrifice biodiversity for the well-being of contemporary people, but should coexist with nature in a more harmonious way.
