Sustainability beyond silos: Can the landscapes approach really catalyze cross-sector collaboration?

11:45 - 12:30

Land restoration, worker welfare, environmental sustainability- every sector is tackling the same challenges. $12 trillion in annual agricultural and mining revenues depend on degrading ecosystems (World Bank), while 60% of global deforestation stems from just these two sectors (FAO). Yet solutions remain fragmented.

By aligning incentives and operations across sectors through shared infrastructure, coordinated land-use planning, and joint sustainability investments, the landscapes approach offers a framework to convert zero-sum resource competition into mutually beneficial outcomes that balance productivity with ecological and social resilience.

What would it take for resource-heavy industries to start scaling impact together?
