ISO 17298 – Biodiversity in strategy and operations

A new international standard to help organizations take action for nature

Biodiversity is essential – for life on Earth, for healthy ecosystems, and for resilient economies. Yet global biodiversity is declining at unprecedented rates. ISO 17298 provides a practical framework to help organizations of all types and sizes understand how they depend on and impact nature – and take concrete action to address it.

Developed by ISO’s expert committee on biodiversity (ISO/TC 331), this is the first International Standard that guides organizations in embedding biodiversity into their core strategies, operations and decision-making processes.

Why ISO 17298 matters

USD 44 trillion – over half the world’s GDP – is moderately or highly dependent on nature. As biodiversity risks grow, so do regulatory, reputational, and operational pressures. ISO 17298 helps you move from intention to action.

Whether you’re a business, local authority, NGO or public institution, this standard supports you to:

  • Understand your biodiversity impacts, dependencies and risks
  • Identify opportunities for green growth and nature-positive finance
  • Align with global frameworks like the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF)
  • Develop and implement a credible biodiversity action plan

What’s in the standard

ISO 17298 helps organizations:

  • Assess how their activities interact with biodiversity
  • Prioritize actions at both operational and landscape levels
  • Set measurable objectives and monitor progress
  • Integrate biodiversity into broader sustainability efforts (e.g. ISO 14001, ISO 26000)

The approach is iterative and adaptable – designed to evolve with your organization and its context.

 

FAQ

Any organization — public or private, large or small — seeking to reduce biodiversity-related risks and improve sustainability performance.

ISO 17298 helps operationalize Target 15 of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework by enabling organizations to assess, disclose, and act on nature-related impacts.

Yes. It complements ISO 14001 (environmental management), ISO 26000 (social responsibility), and other nature-related frameworks.

This is ISO’s first International Standard on biodiversity. It builds on consensus-based best practices to support action across sectors and geographies — especially in developing countries.
