Programme

This session features a transformative story of conflict resolution in rural Indonesia, where trust is the true protagonist. With grassroots land disputes intrinsically linked to business and reputational risks, formal grievance systems provide a crucial doorway to initiating long-overdue dialogue. This talk demonstrates that while Rights provide justice, building mutual trust through honest conversation is essential for truly resolving conflicts and securing a sustainable future. Join us to hear this speaker share his experience representing an indigenous community and what it took to build trust among stakeholders. (15 mins)

The global palm oil sector is undergoing a transition toward becoming ‘Nature Positive,’ a strategic framework that seeks to halt and reverse biodiversity loss, restore ecological functionality, and increasingly integrate natural capital valuation into core business decision-making. This session offers groundbreaking insights into how Nature Positive palm oil is moving from commitment into measurable, on-the-ground action globally. Listen to practical industry insights that have conserved and remediated priority ecosystems, protected biodiversity, empowered smallholders, strengthened landscape partnerships, and leveraged innovation to accelerate measurable impacts.

Public commitments to physical palm oil segregation stall not from technical barriers, but because traditional corporate procurement structures send conflicting financial signals upstream. Standard corporate metrics heavily reward buyers for securing the lowest immediate price per ton. Consequently, procurement teams naturally select cheaper, blended options over fully segregated, sustainable palm oil, leaving certified, traceable supply stranded in the market. Join us in our upcoming session to explore how strategically rewriting procurement goals, introducing internal cost sharing mechanisms, and utilising long term supplier contracting can realign corporate incentives, resolve financial friction, and drive meaningful physical supply chain transformation across global operations.
