INVITATION Nature Action Accelerator: Module 2 – A South African Perspective on a Global Shift Toward Nature
April 14 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
South Africa is one of the world’s most biodiverse countries – yet its ecological systems are increasingly under pressure from climate change, land use change and economic activity.
With the Global Biodiversity Framework (including Target 15) calling on business to assess, reduce and disclose nature-related risks and impacts, the role of the private sector is now central to advancing a credible, nature-positive future.
The National Business Initiative (NBI) and the Endangered Wildlife Trust (EWT), supported by Business for Nature, invite your organisation to participate in the second module of the Nature Action Accelerator – part of a structured, practical four part series designed to enable South African businesses move from awareness to the operational integration of nature into their systems.
What the Accelerator Delivers
Built around the globally recognised ACT-D Framework, the programme supports companies to:
Assess:Understand nature-related impacts, dependencies, risks and opportunities
Commit:Set clear, science-aligned ambitions and targets
Transform: Integrate nature into core business decision making, operations, supply chains and investment processes
Disclose:Align with evolving nature-related reporting expectations and requirements
The second module of the Nature Action Accelerator will focus on the ‘Commit’ phase of the ACT-D framework.
The session will guide companies in translating assessment insights gathered in the ‘Assess’ phase into credible commitments, including how to:
Define science-aligned ambition on nature
Align commitments with the Global Biodiversity Framework (Target 15)
Integrate commitment setting into strategic planning and governance processes
This engagement will also continue strengthening practical capability for organisations undertaking or preparing for nature related assessments, strategy integration and governance alignment – but with a strong focus on helping companies move from understanding to making meaningful, measurable commitments to nature action.
Why Participate?
Build practical capability to integrate nature into strategy, risk and governance processes – while engaging directly with peers, policymakers and technical experts shaping the agenda. Position your organisation at the forefront of South Africa’s transition to a credible, nature-positive economy.
The Nature Action Accelerator offers a unique opportunity to strengthen corporate leadership on biodiversity, support ambitious national policy, and strengthen organisational resilience.
Event details - Module 2
Date: Tuesday, 14 April 2026 Time: 10:00 – 12:30 (SAST) Platform: Online via Zoom
We look forward to your participation as we continue accelerating credible, collective action for nature.
