This event will wrap up the 2023 cycle of “Business Initiatives,” a program conducted by FGVces together with companies in several sectors. In a roundtable discussion, the guest speakers will share their experiences and efforts to advance the biodiversity agenda, considering the possibilities and challenges of integrating it with the climate agenda, and the importance of coordination between actors in light of the challenges faced. The webinar will also see the launch of a publication mapping what has been happening on the biodiversity agenda (initiatives, instruments and agreements), links with the climate agenda and connections with business management.
