Business for Land – Launching the B4L Champions Council
Wednesday 21 January 2026 08:00-09:30 CET
ENERGY ROOM
How do we turn land health into a core business resilience and investment theme – not a side project?
Co-hosted by UNCCD and InTent, this working session is the substantive launch of the Business for Land (B4L) Champions Council – a cross-sector coalition of business leaders committed to land restoration and drought resilience.
Building on the Business4Land Forum at COP16 (Riyadh) and looking ahead to COP17 (Mongolia), the session positions Land Health as a strategic pillar of business resilience and economic transformation, along a Riyadh–Davos–Mongolia continuum.
CEOs, policymakers, investors and technical partners help shape the Council’s mandate, membership and first workstreams, including advocacy, investment mobilisation and policy innovation.
