Effective Company Claims About Contributions to Landscape Performance Outcomes

Contribution claims exist at the intersection between company actions in a landscape and the improvement in sustainability performance over time in that landscape. Companies are encouraged to communicate about the actions they are taking or supporting. This third position paper sets initial guidelines for companies on the claims they can make about how their investments or actions have contributed to performance improvement in a landscape.

This joint position paper is the third in a series of collective positions from the landscape and jurisdictional practitioner community, made up of 18 organisations including the Tropical Forest Alliance, WWF, Earthworm Foundation, and Conservation International. It aims to provide companies and the organisations that support them with accessible and consistent guidance for effective investment and action in landscapes and jurisdictions. The series provides a common baseline set of expectations for companies, on which the practitioner community is building more detailed guidance and tools.
