This week the EESG will host a meeting with Gareth Wishart, a member of the Climate Community and Biodiversity Alliance (CCBA) standards team. The CCBA is an alliance of 5 major conservation and development organizations: Conservation International, Wildlife Conservation Society, The Nature Conservancy, Rainforest Alliance, and Care. The CCBA has developed a set of voluntary standards to help design and identify land management activities that simultaneously minimize climate change, support sustainable development and conserve biodiversity.
Mr. Wishart will discuss the impetus and goals of this initiative along with his perspective on how conservation and development goals can be integrated in developing and traditional societies.
We look forward to seeing you at our discussion!
