Guidance on UEBT Standard Principle 1: Biodiversity conservation

 
 

Principle 1 of the UEBT standard promotes conservation of biodiversity. One important aspect of this principle is the implementation of concrete actions to maintain, restore, or enhance biodiversity in cultivation or wild collection areas. Criterion 1.2 focuses on these actions. 

This factsheet gives guidance on how to conserve biodiversity, including concrete tips and examples for companies and their suppliers for compliance with UEBT requirements on biodiversity conservation.

It is part of a series of technical guidance documents, meant to support the implementation of key issues of the UEBT standard. It was developed with the support of the BioTrade facilitation programme, UNCTAD.  UEBT and UNCTAD acknowledge the financial contribution of the Swiss State Secretariat of Economic Affairs (SECO).
