As presentes Directrizes sobre Negócios e KBAs foram desenvolvidas pelos Parceiros das KBAs para apoiar as empresas na gestão de riscos para a biodiversidade. Serão úteis para operadores económicos e de regimes de certificação, instituições financeiras, organizações da sociedade civil e autoridades públicas.

This book addresses both risk management at a startup, beginning at the mission statement, and for existing nonprofits that may be at risk due to inappropriate policies, or lack thereof, proper procedures and risk abatement planning. Risk management policies including oversite of financial transactions, purchasing, hiring, volunteer management, insurance and more are discussed. The book progresses through risk identification, risk communication, and financial risk.

Emerging evidence shows that the proximity to nature, including coastal environments, provides many benefits to human health and mental well-being. However, the environmental, social, and emotional impacts of climate change such as sea-level rise and increased flooding pose significant risks for coastal communities and may offset the benefits of living close to the coast.

These Guidelines on business and KBAs have been developed by the KBA Partners to support businesses in managing risk to biodiversity. They will be of use to business and certification scheme operators, financial institutions, civil society organisations, and public authorities. They are applicable to the businesses’ entire area of influence, as well as throughout the life cycle of the operation, from pre-feasibility to closure (and, where relevant, site rehabilitation).
