All businesses depend and impact on natural capital. Through understanding and considering the risks and opportunities created by nature, businesses can make better decisions that benefit themselves, society and the planet as a whole.
Do you understand your business’ relationship with nature? Is your business managing its environmental risks and opportunities? If you are interested to learn about the value of natural capital and how to integrate it into business decision-making, this training is for you!
The We Value Nature training event is free of charge and open to any business. It will be most useful to businesses that need guidance on where and how to start in their natural capital journey.
Due to limited spaces available, we will be assessing each application request individually with priority given to businesses that need guidance on where and how to start on their natural capital journey. As we expect high interest in this event, we encourage you to sign-up as soon as possible.
We will inform you of the outcome of your application by email once we have reviewed all applications. Should we be unable to secure a spot for you, we will keep you informed of future training opportunities.
