Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) Expands Engagement Activities Supporting Nature-risk Framework Development

At this week's World Economic Forum in Davos, the TNFD announced three engagement initiatives, involving further stakeholders in the design and development of TNFD's recommendations.

▶ Six TNFD Consultation Groups in Australia & New Zealand, India, Japan, Netherlands, Switzerland, United Kingdom
▶ Four piloting program partnerships: FSD Africa, Global Canopy, UNEP FI, WBCSD
▶ Engagement of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities globally in partnership with IUCN

Regarding the third point, Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) steward much of the world’s natural resources and play a vital role in safeguarding nature. Their communities are also highly dependent on nature for their livelihoods and Indigenous-led enterprises are often pioneers in sustainable business models. TNFD is partnering with IUCN to engage with IPLCs and ensure their voices are included in the development of the TNFD Framework.
