II. Implementation
Challenges / obstacles encountered in the implementation of this Resolution
Lack of scientific knowledge
Describe any challenges encountered in implementing this Resolution and the measures taken
The practices to adequately internalize environmental cost are still in their early days but frameworks (natural capital accounting) are developping in the public and private sector.
Please report on the result /achievement of the actions taken
The implementation of the operational guidelines for business engagement is extended to commission and IUCN National Committees. Focal points as well as a sponsorship and licencing committee have been established at secretariat level to advise the DG. The Private sector task force has been called upon and is informed of ongoing and upcoming relationships on a periodic basis to monitor contentious issues. In a years' time we will review the practicality of this guidelines and how they need to be improved further.
For the Natural Capital Protocol development, IUCN members called for a motion (#063) to be debated at the upcoming IUCN World Conservation Congress. Several sessions at Congress will provide insights on current practices in this field. IUCN is involved and gaining experience in natural capital protocol pilots not only at corporate level but also at country level which involves the public sector.
