Description: 

To tackle this challenge and help companies accelerate NBS implementation, this guide provides a starting point to identify and measure the multiple benefits accruing from NBS investments. The guide indicates which specific NBS activities can be implemented in various habitats and suggests methods for measuring the benefits. A multi-stakeholder project team, including the CEO Water Mandate, Pacific Institute, The Nature Conservancy, Danone and LimnoTech, developed the guide. An expert advisory group, comprising members of governments, the private sector, academia, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and funding and financing institutions, provided additional strategic and technical input.
