It underscores the importance of biodiversity credits that ensure verified outcomes for nature, uphold equity and fairness, and foster good governance in credit markets and provides guidelines for achieving this ambition.Some key points within the Framework:<ul><li>Developing scalable, high-integrity biodiversity credits and markets is achievable at the necessary scale and speed.</li></ul><ul><li>"High integrity" signifies outcomes that are verified for nature, equitable for communities, and governed responsibly.</li></ul><ul><li>Recognizing the essential role of Nature’s stewards is crucial; their knowledge, values, and traditions should be upheld and respected.</li></ul><ul><li>Biodiversity credits can facilitate measurable contributions to Nature goals, compensate for local biodiversity impacts under strict criteria, and support "insetting" within buyers' supply chains. IAPB explicitly excludes international biodiversity offsetting.</li></ul><ul><li>Urgent, ambitious collective leadership is vital from all market participants to rapidly expand high-integrity biodiversity credit markets.</li></ul>The Framework can be viewed and downloaded <a href="https://www.iapbiocredits.org/framework" title="https://www.iapbiocredits.org/framework" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</a>.Franziska Schrodt and Richard Field, University of Nottingham, theme and flagship leaders within the InFinBio programme and technical co-leads of the workgroup that developed the newly released Framework, will provide an overview of the framework followed by an opportunity for Q&amp;A and discussion.Please note the Q&amp;A and discussion session will not be recorded.You will receive a link to the webinar in a separate email a few days before the event.
