On 31st January 2022, the Climate Disclosure Standards Board (CDSB) was consolidated into the IFRS Foundation to support the work of the newly established International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). While this site and its resources remain relevant for preparers looking to improve sustainability disclosure until such time as the ISSB issues its IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards on such topics, no further work or guidance will be produced or published by CDSB. For further information please visit the IFRS website.

Business for Nature

CDSB is a partner of Business for Nature, a global coalition bringing together influential organisations and forward-thinking businesses.

Forward-thinking businesses understand that global economic prosperity relies on a healthy natural world and are already making commitments and acting on nature protection and restoration. 

2020 presents world leaders with a unique opportunity to forge an international agreement to reverse nature loss like the 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change. Business for Nature brings an aggregated business voice to the negotiations, calling on governments to adopt a new deal for nature and people that would provide the policy signals that are necessary to scale up business action.

Business for Nature is amplifying a business movement for nature by:

  • Convening a united business voice; 
  • Demonstrating business ambition and action;
  • Showcasing business solutions that are already translating commitments into action;
  • Communicating the business case for reversing nature loss.
