Kern van de disclosure
E4-3 reports key actions and resources related to material biodiversity and ecosystems impacts, risks or opportunities under GDR-A.
Actions taken and planned may be organised using the mitigation hierarchy — avoidance, minimisation, restoration and compensation — but the standard does not require a separate action in every category.
Biodiversity offsets are conditional. Where used, disclose their aims, key terms, standards or methodologies and relevant social and environmental safeguards. Respect for Indigenous Peoples' free, prior and informed consent is addressed where applicable.
