This report is part of a joint undertaking by IUCN and RWE to explore the possibility of integrating biodiversity values into RWE policies and practices. It was felt that a closer examination of the biodiversity management undertaken by RWE at the Hambach mining site during the past 35 years and the methods of the company's stakehodler engagement processes were needed. This examination offers IUCN the best opportunity to understand RWE's past approaches to biodiversity and for RWE to learn about today's needs for the integrated biodiversity management approaches advocated by IUCN. The report aims to provide the basis for development of a company-wide strategic approach to the management of biodiversity and related stakeholder needs.
