Strategic Collaboration for Biodiversity Conservation

A well-articulated biodiversity policy is in place at APSEZ, enabling us to effectively engage in policy advocacy, as well as in dialogue with government bodies, NGOs, and academia. The policy is designed to promote the valuation of biodiversity and ecosystem services. APSEZ has a designated biodiversity champion to lead our efforts in assessing biodiversity risks and opportunities. Our strong commitment to sustainable biodiversity management is manifest in APSEZ's membership in the India Business & Biodiversity Initiative (IBBI).

Biodiversity Awareness and Knowledge

Various initiatives are undertaken at APSEZ to promote awareness and knowledge among the employees on the crucial subject of biodiversity. The 13th Environment Shikhar, held from August 8 to 10, 2024 at Adani Corporate House in Ahmedabad, brought together 35 employees from various ports and logistics sites across India. Organised by the company’s Environment team, the event featured insightful guest lectures from experts at Indomer Coastal Hydraulics (P) Ltd. and GUIDE (Gujarat Institute of Desert Ecology) and MoEFCC. The sessions covered a range of critical topics, including Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) notifications, the various modelling techniques employed in Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA), port & coastal habitat, terrestrial ecology, and the pressing issue of climate change.
