Voluntary Biodiversity Credits: A Guide for Business
Developed by IMD and UNIL, this practical guide explains how voluntary biodiversity credits (VBCs) can finance conservation and restoration while supporting business biodiversity goals. It contrasts VBCs with carbon credits, sets integrity criteria, and offers a step-by-step buyer checklist. Emphasises outcome-based biodiversity measurement, credible MRV, Indigenous participation, and transparency as foundations of a high-quality VBC market.
