Ep 15: Sustainability in Supply Chains to protect biodiversity
Listen now
Description
Sustainability is a buzzword and a concept that has been around for decades. Businesses have recognised the importance of running their enterprise with minimal negative impact on the environment, community and society. In this episode, we will dive right into where many of these processes start - at the sourcing end of supply chains. Supply chains are inherently complex, creating challenges in identifying, measuring and tracking the sustainability of the process. However, some new market-led, science-based global frameworks are enabling us to get closer to achieving ambitious sustainability goals - and nature is guiding the decision-making. Join us in this episode as we delve into how one organisation helps businesses to green their supply chain and identify, assess and manage nature-related dependencies, impacts, risks and opportunities.
