The NBI Environment and Society team in South Africa focuses on:
We meet these strategic objectives through a suite of projects intended to creating awareness and to introduce the skills necessary for business to take meaningful, transformative action when managing natural resources and natural capital. Action should take place both within the financial and operational boundaries of our member companies (including integrating natural resource management into their business models and management systems or even altering their business models) and within their sphere of influence (particularly in their value chains and in their engagement with Government on policy implementation). Ultimately we believe that meaningful change cannot be achieved without business working collaboratively to share learning and generate new solutions. The global context and environmental pressures we face mean that change must be transformative (and not incremental as it is today) and at a significantly greater pace. Fundamental to our success is the involvement of our member companies.
