The Biodiversity Moonshot: System Thinking to Co-Create a Biodiversity Embedded Future for Companies

• The detrimental consequences for general economic and social well-being as a result of biodiversity loss and the subsequent degradation of natural ecosystems are emerging as a wicked challenge that the whole societal and economic system must urgently faces. The severity of the impacts of incremental biodiversity depletion calls for substantial and imperative action by all actors and in particular by companies and institutions. Moreover, it is also pivotal an in-depth reflection that allows the management studies to develop as a scientific branch and to play its part in the fundamental transition to a biodiversity embedded future for companies. To further stimulate academic debate, this Symposium aims to encourage discussions on how companies can manage their relationship with the natural environment so as not to destroy the very life-supporting foundations provided by biodiversity.
