12/09/2021: The growing number of signatories of the Finance for Biodiversity Pledge as well as the Business Statement, developed by 13 business networks, and delivered to the European Commission, show the engagement of the business community to mainstream biodiversity into economic life. However, many challenges remain to fully embed nature into business decisions, which can only be addressed if we increase our actions, level of ambition, and manage to engage all actors of society collectively towards that goal.
 
At the EBNS 2021 from 30 November to 01 December, the EBBC was present twice: The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (GIZ) presented the PBAB project co-designed by EBBC/Global Nature Fund (GNF) in order to demonstrate what effective biodiversity management in agriculture and the food sector can look like in different regions of the world. GNF president and Lake Constance Foundation Executive Director Marion Hammerl talked about the initiative LIFE Insect-Responsible Sourcing Regions for sustainable Insect conservation at landscape level.
