Building your Nature Intelligence

A hands-on workshop for leaders across sectors to apply the TNFD's approach into their practical decision-making.

Nature underpins the stability and value of everything we produce, build and finance. Yet it is still barely accounted for in the decisions that shape South Australia's economy. This intimate practitioner-focused workshop will:

• Show you how to apply the TNFD's LEAP assessment in real-world strategy, operational and investment decisions.

• Connect you to experts who are building nature risk and opportunity into capital allocation, portfolio management and governance.

• Provide you with data, metrics and dashboards that turn nature into something you can brief, model and invest in.

• Strengthen your network of professionals and leaders working on integrating nature into decision-making.

Why attend?

• Learn-by-doing through exercises developed by TNFD experts.

• Gain actionable tools you can plug into your current role that will support better decision-making.

• Meet and get feedback from experts at the forefront of nature and the TNFD in Australia.

• Develop contacts across sectors and along the value chain.

Who it's for

Leaders and practitioners from across the South Australian economy — agriculture and food, land and property, finance and investment, resources and energy, government and the not-for-profit sector — who are being asked to account for nature and want a practical way in.

Led by

BWD Strategic, in collaboration with Value Australia.

Experts include

• Rayne Van Den Berg — Chief Value Officer, Value Australia

• Alex Nankivell, CEO, Nature Foundation

• Natasha Davies, Green Adelaide

• Andrew Lowe, Director, Environment Institute, Adelaide Univerosity

Our panel of experts will discuss their approach to embedding nature into decision-making in their own sectors — what they've tried, what's worked, and where the real friction is.
