New released white paper

Biodiversity white paper

The White Paper on Biodiversity, published by HEC Alumni in June 2022, has three objectives:

  • to raise awareness of biodiversity issues among the HEC community and all economic players,
  • to challenge business leaders and political decision-makers to take action, and
  • to feed the debates at the upcoming COP15 conference.

This report is not intended to be exhaustive and does not replace the scientific literature on the subject. Its objective is to point out the current gaps in knowledge and regulations and to promote dialogue between business leaders, policy makers, academics and citizens.
