Nature Stewardship

Business in the Community’s (BITC) environment campaign encourages innovative and transformational change at the core of businesses. Our programmes focus on building a one-planet economy that delivers lasting prosperity through the Global Goals, also known as the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Our Nature Stewardship work aims to increase the resilience of urban and rural landscapes that protect natural assets, support wellbeing, and help climate proof community and business assets. Business investment in restoring nature reduces human vulnerability, preserves biodiversity, and contributes to positive societal and economic outcomes.
