Feedback from participating companies

The participating companies’ overall satisfaction with the programme was reflected in their feedback. The companies viewed the programme as well organised and beneficial to their businesses. While the diversity of the companies was seen as fostering an understanding of different approaches to biodiversity work, some participants felt that there could have been even more opportunities to learn from others.
Feedback on workshops
“The momentum is now! Biodiversity has great momentum with huge global interest.”
“There are very different perspectives you can take on the biodiversity analyses: some have a location-specific approach, and we will, at least for now, take a more general view.”
“Fast movers will benefit the most.”
“Awareness raising is the crucial first step.”
Feedback on the programme as a whole
“Finding out about the different tools and ways to classify the impacts and assess their intensity was extremely good and a type of knowledge that would be difficult to gain elsewhere independently. Hearing about the other companies’ initiatives was also valuable.”
“Communication worked very well and the approach of the programme was active.”
Suggestions for improvement
“Now that we have action plans in place, it would be great to receive support in the implementation stage and follow-up of the progress.”
“The legislative changes and upcoming reporting demands were mentioned several times, but it would have been good to address these on a bit more concrete level. For someone who is not familiar with all the regulative frameworks, the topic remained somewhat blurry.”
