Sustainable landscapes: How can the private sector contribute?
Abstract
Pressures on landscapes and people driven by soaring global consumption call for innovative solutions to enable sustainability. Many consumption- related harms are especially acute in countries of the global South where commodities are produced. Given their role as main suppliers of global consumption, businesses – especially multinational companies – have major potential to enable more sustainable use of landscapes, in collaboration with the public sector. This policy brief highlights the promise and challenges of sustainability-oriented landscape approaches involving the private sector, as well as how existing landscape initiatives might be improved.
