Join this AM session at #Focali2023 December 7 in Stockholm 🌍 Corporate #Sustainability Due Diligence in the #EU How can it foster more sustainable global supply chains for #forests & people? 🌳 How can Swedish based actors contribute? 👉 Sign-up to secure a spot for this session or the full day https://lnkd.in/ewMvV3QN Over the past decade, there has been a new wave of regulations that aim to govern international business toward sustainability. Regulations based on human rights and environmental due diligence (HREDD) approach have been emphasized as particularly promising. The EU and European member states have taken a pioneering role in this new trend. For instance, the EU has recently agreed upon its regulation on deforestation-free products (EUDR) and is on the verge to adopt a directive on Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence (CSDDD). This session aims to enhance our understanding of what this development mean for Swedish stakeholders by addressing the following questions: 1) What are the potential and limitations of HREDD regulations for fostering more sustainable global supply chains; 2) What conditions and complementary measures are needed; 3) How can Swedish actors contribute to the implementation of HREDD?

Anticipating 'Circular Choices - Forging a Sustainable EU Bioeconomy' at the upcoming Cepi conference is quite exciting. This session stands out to me in bridging the gap between the practical realities of the industry and the ambitious political objectives. It's essential to highlight that environmentally sound practices should not only be beneficial for the planet but also offer tangible advantages for businesses.

Just reading the interesting EU report Monitoring the twin transition of industrial ecosystems, AGRI-FOOD. It seems things are picking up - at least in many parts of Europe. But I need to bash my home, Sweden. With some of the best pre-conditions around for making a transition into the next gen food system nothing much happens under the current government and its so-called innovation authorities. Do take a look at this picture, Vinnova, and explain to me how on Earth this can be the case in 2024. Any basic strategic insights you would like to share that can motivate this glaring absence of focus on one of the main topics of our time? https://lnkd.in/d3WKywnp

Day one and done! What a first day packed with insights and fascinating innovations across the sector...so what are some of today’s key takeaways? 🌊 From Bridget Wilson: To use the 17 Sustainable Development Goals as a tool to communicate the industry’s achievements. It will take time and effort, but change is possible. 🌊 Vangelis Vitalis reminded us to diversify our export portfolios and to make sure you’re taking advantage of the trade agreements negotiated on your behalf...and to tick the box that says you are opting IN to New Zealand’s free trade agreement preference! 🌊 Data can help us tell our story and foster international collaboration. Angela Williamson and Veronica Papacosta showed us through Futures of Seafood how collaboration and good data can inform science-backed decision making. 🌊 And Josh Donker of Motueka Nets and Rui Peng of Critical. are proof that when industry and startups work together, innovative solutions are possible. Now it’s off to the WISA Happy Hour before we all get an early night 😉 to be ready for tomorrow’s lineup of amazing speakers. #seafoodnz #championsofsustainability #seafoodconference2024

💡 "The world’s GDP is dependent on nature" means that the overall wealth and economic well-being of the world (Gross Domestic Product or GDP) are closely tied to the health and sustainability of the natural environment. Many economic activities, such as agriculture, forestry, and fishing, directly depend on nature. Additionally, ecosystems provide essential services like clean air, water purification, and climate regulation, which indirectly support economic activities. Therefore, the state of the environment significantly influences the global economy. Recognizing and managing this relationship is crucial for achieving sustainable and resilient economic development. #environmentalsustainability #economies
