GCRF Trade, Development and the Environment Hub

Lead Research Organisation: World Conservation Monitoring Cen WCMC

Abstract

Our GCRF TRADE Hub addresses a global challenge that has led to dramatic decline in biodiversity and ecosystem resilience in the past century, and if not addressed will significantly imperil the development of lower income nations. Trade in wildlife and agricultural commodities from low and middle income to higher income countries has increased rapidly over the last decades, and is projected to expand rapidly into the future to meet demands. Although trade is vital for national development, it also can carry heavy environmental and social costs, particularly for poor rural people in DAC countries, mainly because there is a great imbalance of power within the decision-making system and the most affected people are relatively powerless and voiceless in the decision-making process. The development of these trades over the past decades have has also resulted in considerable impacts on natural systems, threatening with extinction thousands of species globally. Addressing the issue of balancing the positives of ever-expanding trade with its costs is essential to addressing several of the SDGs, to protect and promote livelihoods within vulnerable communities in DAC countries, and is important for the UK in terms of negotiating sustainable trade deals that also meet other environmental and social development commitments.

The Hub will work on a number of key trade flows that are particularly important to our focal developing countries and the UK, and where we have existing strengths that will allow us to have real impact in the lifetime of the Hub. This will include trade that has a direct impact on biodiversity - for example the global trade in wildlife for a range of uses, including the regional and national trade in wild meat. It will also include agricultural commodity trades that have indirect impacts on biodiversity through conversion or degradation of habitats. Its strong international and interdisciplinary research team, including economists, trade modellers, political scientists, ecologists and development scientists, will produce novel, impact-orientated research. Through involving companies, UN-related trade bodies and governments, the project will be embedded in the needs of the economy and development at large.

We have ten work packages: During the project design phase WP0 will further elaborate a detailed theory of change and mapping exercise leading to the co-design of the research programme with critical stakeholders (private sector actors, trade organisations and NGOs). This will lead into the delivery of eight interlinked work packages: WP1: Understanding wildlife trade from DAC countries (live animals, skins, non-timber products, wildmeat) at the supply end; volumes and characteristics of local and export trade, and impacts on biodiversity and resource users; WP2: Understanding supply to demand-end agricultural commodity trade pathways, volumes and characteristics, within and exported from DAC countries; WP3: Determining the magnitude and spatial-temporal distribution of social benefits and costs for selected wildlife and commodity supply chains from the supply to demand ends; WP4: Understanding how trade and economic policies impact on wild-sourced and agricultural commodity trades and their impact on people and nature; WP5: Modelling the implementation of different scenarios of trade policy and corporate decision making; WP6: Developing solutions and building capacity through engagement with the private sector (large corporations and investors); WP7: Developing solutions and building capacity, through engaging with trade public sector rule-setting agencies and national policy makers; WP8: Outreach and Technology Solutions. We also have a cross-cutting WP9: building DAC partner capacity to ensure ongoing, sustainable research-led solutions to TRADE's intractable challenge. We involved DAC countries, corporations, investment bodies, and UN-linked trade agencies in the co-design of this Hub from the outset.

Planned Impact

Impact activities constitute a large proportion of the work plan. These activities have been co-designed with impact partners ranging from international government-led trade bodies, local to international NGOs, global research and outreach organisations, and major corporations and investment bodies. We have developed a detailed theory of change with the partnership, and this has been reviewed and verified as credible by our impact partners. It includes an assessment of assumptions and risks that need to be managed. This Theory of Change and the associated Logical Framework will guide our impact work and will be elaborated at project start.

In the private sector, we have already obtained written commitments to work with the hub from some of the world largest companies: Mars, Kering, Asda, Ingredion and AB Agri. A further array of other international companies have also indicated interest to be involved to help maximize the Hubs impact ranging from commodity traders to financial institutions. Our academic partners, WCMC, and our NGO partners (WRI, WWF and TRAFFIC) all have further active programmes with companies that we can build upon as the Hub starts. We have also secured support from membership organizations that count multi-nationals and investment banks among their members, as convened by the UN Environment's Finance Initiative.

Among trade and policy related bodies, we have core team members from UN Environment's Environment and Trade Hub, Chatham House, and commitment to participate from the UNEP Finance Initiative. Other agencies, such as CITES, the World Economic Forum, Food and Agriculture Organisation, and the Organisation for Economic and Commercial Development have also stated their interest. When the TRADE Hub is operational we believe that more of these highly influential bodies will join the work.

At the end of the project we expect to have delivered a number of tangible outcomes and impacts: a) co-developed, with impact partners in the UK, international bodies and DAC countries, realistic scenarios of policy options for the development of global trade to alleviate poverty without reducing biodiversity; b) enhanced the evidence base, traceability and transparency for key commodity and wildlife trade flows and their impacts; c) developed new ways to show how biodiversity-impacting trade flows from hub countries to other parts of the world, and within these countries, affects natural capital and social development, and proposed an action plan to tackle emerging challenges now and into the future; d) identified and promoted local solutions to trade-related sustainability issues affecting wildlife and vulnerable people; e) defined pathways toward positive changes in biodiversity impacts, within multiple trade flows and with concrete implementation of demonstration projects on the ground in at least one country; f) thereby prompted a change in trade decisions from at least one developing country and for at least one key trade flow between the developing world and the developed world (including the UK); g) catalysed a measurable change in the way global trade is conducted in at least three major business operations and changed how trade benefits and impacts are measured and accounted for by governments and business; h) built capacity in developing countries, enabling sustainable and growing networks supporting interdisciplinary research excellence and policy influence on trade-related issues.

Our approach to impact also aims to ensure the sustainability of the work of the TRADE Hub. By involving an array of permanent agencies, we plan to embed the work within these agencies to allow the thrust of the work to continue long after the funding ends. We will also spend time towards the end of the funded Hub period on activities related to fundraising, ensuring continuation and legacy of the work, and keeping the most productive elements working on these issues.

Impact Natural rubber can be found in almost every industry. Despite the sustainability potential, the rubber supply chain has been opaque, often contributing to deforestation and human rights abuses. FSC, by contrast, has been on a quest to give smallholders, brands and stakeholders throughout the supply chain an opportunity to overcome these challenges. But what exactly does this mean at the forest level? Through exclusive interviews with nearly a dozen smallholder rubber farmers from several certified groups throughout Thailand, learn how FSC forest stewardship standards are delivering environmental, social and economic impacts for individuals and how you can get involved in sustainable natural rubber.

Type Of Art Film/Video/Animation 
Year Produced 2022 
Impact In recent weeks, the Cerrado Network has drawn up the Charter for the Peoples of the Cerrado, addressed to the European Union. The main objective is to include our biome in the regulation that requires zero deforestation for the importation of agricultural products. A necessary request, since the Cerrado is a Brazilian biome that covers a territory equivalent to the combined surfaces of France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Denmark, Holland and Belgium, where more than 25 million people live. It is an extremely biodiverse biome recognized as a planetary hotspot, which includes more than 5% of the world's biodiversity, with more than 12,000 species of native plants and a high level of endemism. The Cerrado has important contributions to the regional and global climate balance due to its carbon stocks. And, therefore, we expect the support of the members of the Council, Commission and Parliament of the European Union in this fight to care for the people who protect the fauna and flora of our collective home, which is the Earth.

Description With a focus on trade in wild species and agricultural commodities, the TRADE Hub seeks to address the longstanding tension between trade-induced economic growth, environmental and social impacts, especially for vulnerable population groups. The work is highly relevant to current global debates on the nexus between climate, trade, food systems, health and biodiversity loss. Our work directly involves and is relevant to most key value chain stakeholders, from farmers and forest users, through business and finance agencies, supply chain actors and consumers, to those setting national and global policy and laws. Collectively the TRADE Hub is working across the trade spectrum, providing and developing underpinning research and knowledge, and promoting its use in the context of a dramatic increase in the demands for change.
• Farmers, forest users and Indigenous peoples are empowered to shift to more sustainable practices and obtain fair economic returns for their traded products
• Local to national regulation of nature and social impacts of trade is strengthened to impact both upstream and downstream aspects of trade
• Nature and social considerations are more visible in the work of business and finance companies involved with trade
• Multilateral development goals linking nature, people and trade are strengthened
• Nature and social factors are better considered in international trade agreements
• Wildlife trade systems and policies are understood and influenced at international, national and local levels
Exploitation Route The outcomes of the funding are targeted at different user groups in very specific ways. For example, the work on trade systems for agricultural commodities has been targeted at farmers, national governments, international agreements, UN agencies, and bodies such as the World Trade Organisation. Insights have been turned into tools, web-based platforms, policy papers for environmental agreements, and inputs into business facing guidance materials. Each of our target audiences has been receptive to our inputs and there is much evidence of processes being influenced that affect all countries on earth, thousands of companies, and millions of producers and consumers. We are confident that our synthesis work in the last year will pull things together in ways that allow users to continue to benefit from the work done, and spin off projects to take place that build on where we have reached with the GCRF funds.

Description MEAs: Environmental focused Multilateral Environment agreements, and the governments who attend theme, have directly used TRADE Hub supported materials on (for example) targets and indicators in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, the decision making process of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, and the FACT dialogue of the UNFCCC COP26 in Glasgow. We are working directly with the secretariats of the CITES and CBD conventions in our final year of operation to maximise impact, and we are seeking similar close working relationships with WTO in Geneva. Farmers/forest users: We have worked with farmers and farmer support organisations - including UN agencies - to highlight the challenges faced by farmers in developing countries in adopting and making money from a transition to more sustainable practices and trade-related certification schemes. Our work has generated considerable insights that we have fed into business and policy facing discussions at national to global levels. National policies : Our work on wildlife and wild meat trades has been taken up by governments in China (wild bird trade) and in Gabon, DR Congo and RO Congo in Africa on wildmeat trades, and Tanzania on hunting regulations. Indonesia and Brazil governments are considering how they will work with the EU deforestation free supply chains regulation, informed by TRADE Hub policy work directly with the EU. Business: TRADE Hub teams are taking insights from the field and working with business facing networks developing guidance, often aligned to the Target 15 of the Global Biodiversity Framework and EU and UK laws on deforestation free trade. These networks - especially the Science Based Targets for Nature and the Task Force for Nature Related Financial Disclosure - are developing guidance for companies and financial bodies that are being launched in 2023. It is expected that these will have major impacts on the business sector.

Impact The Bending The Curve initiative set out to advance quantitative modelling techniques towards ambitious scenarios for biodiversity. A proof of concept analysis was initiated in 2010 to explore the action space towards bending the global loss of biodiversity from land use change, by linking global land use models to global models of biodiversity. The analysis resulted in an academic article in the peer-reviewed journal Nature, released jointly with WWF's 2020 Living Planet Report (joint release). The analysis was also central to IPBES's Global Assessment Report and CBD's 5th Global Biodiversity Outlook. An additional contribution to the 30 by 30 report was made by the land-use modelers involved in the bending the curve initiative and proof of concept analysis, currently being written as article manuscript. Further activities are in the design phase.

Description Connecting behavioural economics and environmental sciences: insights on willingness to pay for environmental benefits across spatial scales 
Organisation University College London
Country United Kingdom 
Sector Academic/University 
PI Contribution Silvia led a successful funding application to the a UCL Grand Challenge of Human Wellbeing small grant. The co-applicant is professor Lorenzo Lotti from UCL Bartlett School of Environment, Energy & Resources. Silvia proposed the idea, refined it together with professor Lotti and wrote the proposal.
Collaborator Contribution The collaborator helps with refining the research question and designing the survey according to behavioural economics research practices. He contributed to writing the proposal and contributes to running the research activities.
Impact Behavioural economics can provide useful insights on behaviours and decision-making related to the environment. For example, it can provide insights on individuals' willingness to pay for environmental benefits that are produced at large-scale and therefore are less tangible and immediate than local benefits. This question is very relevant to understand consumers' willingness-to-pay for premium prices for products with lower environmental impacts and how does that vary with distance from production country. This study is also relevant to understand the feasibility of payment transfers between countries for biodiversity conservation. We plan to run a survey to test how Londoners' willingness to pay changes with the scale at which environmental benefits are expected to be experienced. This is a small, pilot project that will result in a publication and a workshop bringing together ecologists and economists at UCL. Hopefully, further interdisciplinary research around this question will be encouraged by the workshop.
