Your clients are navigating a wave of new nature-related obligations — from TNFD disclosures and CSRD biodiversity requirements to area-based metrics and evolving Environmental Impact Assessment standards. And increasingly, they are turning to their consultants for answers. 

This session cuts through the noise. Hosted by two ex-consultants now at the forefront of nature intelligence, we will map exactly what the key frameworks require, where qualitative narratives are no longer sufficient, and what a defensible, evidence-based approach looks like in 2026. 

You will leave with a clear picture of the regulatory landscape, the data standards now expected by environmental assurers and investors, and a practical tool to help you advise clients with confidence. 

## **What You Will Learn**

*   The nature-related regulatory landscape in plain English and decoded— TNFD LEAP, CSRD ESRS E4, BNG, and EIA reform 
*   Where qualitative narratives are no longer sufficient and what assurance evidence now looks like 
*   The emerging role of environmental DNA and bioacoustics in delivering credible, defensible biodiversity data 

## What You Will Take Away 

*   A downloadable guide: [Navigating Nature-Related Reporting](https://145722394.fs1.hubspotusercontent-eu1.net/hubfs/145722394/Webinars/Consultancy%20webinar%20take-home%20assets/Navigating%20Nature-Related%20Reporting.pdf) — a cheat sheet mapping what each regulation requires using the State, Pressure, Response (SPR) model, and what data standard is expected 
*   Clarity on what 'good' now looks like for consultancy-led nature assessments 
*   Confidence to advise clients navigating the nature agenda
