Session Description
With an increasing number of businesses seeking to fulfil sustainability commitments, the carbon credits market has experienced unprecedented growth in recent years. While this sudden surge demonstrates increased implications for environmental initiatives, it has raised concerns overits credibility. This session will focus on how to develop a nascent biodiversity credits market that is scientifically robust, credible, and equitable. Emphasising the importance of collaboration with Indigenous peoples and local communities, the session will draw lessons from the carbon credits market to strengthen this emerging mechanism for transformative environmental change.
