The Cross-Sector Biodiversity Initiative (CSBI), a partnership between ICMM, IPIECA and the Equator Principles Association, has released practical guidance on the implementation of the mitigation hierarchy for the extractive sector. The Cross-sector guide for implementing the mitigation hierarchy provides step by step guidance showcasing innovative approaches and examples to support effective operationalisation of the mitigation hierarchy. The guidance was developed in consultation and with input from technical specialists in impact assessment, extractive industry experts, financial institutions, and experts within the non-profit sector.
