Location focused decision making

Nature displays huge levels of diversity across the planet, and therefore huge diversity across value chains. From rainforests to river basins, every location presents unique nature-related risks and opportunities — which is why companies can’t rely on one-size-fits-all strategies.

A localized approach to nature management isn't just about mitigating risks. It's about resilience and long-term value creation for both the business and the communities in which it operates.

Effective  strategies for reducing nature-related risks and maximising opportunities take into account local context, including:

• The status and significance of nature located across the value chain
• The processes driving change in nature at priority locations
• The relations between nature and the wellbeing of local communities
