N2 - Understanding a company’s impact on sustainable development, and finding ways to manage it best, is not an easy task. With so many tools available, choosing one to invest time in is even more difficult. GLOBAL VALUE tool showcases will make this task easier. We selected and tested 15 leading tools in different categories to help understand how each of them can help you achieve your assessment goals. Our tool showcases are meant to support you in deciding which tool best fits your company’s needs. The tools were tested in collaboration with multinational companies from different sectors to give you practical tips on how to get the most from using each of the showcased tools. The Natural Capital Protocol is a framework for systematic assessment of the impacts and dependencies of companies on natural resources. It is designed to be a support for decision-making. Therefore, it is best carried out in connection to a strategic decision that will affect the company’s use of natural resources or impact on nature. Through the analysis of a company’s dependencies on natural capital, the business impacts of natural capital can be assessed.
