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. |

| 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. |

| 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. |

| Collaborator Contribution | The project is led by the collaborator at University of Antananarivo. |
| Impact | This project will bring together multiple stakeholders to identify the most effective climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practices in the south and western Madagascar's contexts and address critical knowledge gaps on key enablers and barriers to CSA adoption. This will involve a series of workshops, starting with farmers in rural villages, then a larger group bringing other regional stakeholders to the same rural setting. Knowledge co-produced from these workshops will feed into a third hybrid workshop attended by international researchers. These workshops will aim to advance our understanding of the challenges faced by farmers, and the potential for CSA adoption in Madagascar, by identifying i) what works and is cost effective in a given context, ii) the factors influencing the dissemination and adoption of CSA techniques. This information will be used to support the scaling of cost-effective CSA techniques in drought-prone regions to enhance livelihoods and food security of smallholder farmers in Madagascar. |

| Results and Impact | Since the advent of agriculture, natural forests and habitats have been cleared to engage in crop and animal production as well as other emerging types of industrial activities throughout the ages. The UNFCCC defines "land use, land-use change, and forestry (LULUCF)" as a "greenhouse gas inventory sector that covers emissions and removals of greenhouse gases resulting from direct human-induced land use such as settlements and commercial uses, land-use change, and forestry activities. Over the past two decades, the global forest cover loss has almost doubled (i.e. 13.2 Mha in 2001 and 24.0 Mha in 2019), with plantation/natural forest harvesting and agricultural farming as the top two causes. In Sub-Saharan Africa, land coverage is mostly agricultural land, growing by 4 percent from 1990 to 2018, and forest area declining by the same percentage. Forest tampering has the potential to trigger both warming (deforestation) and cooling effects on the atmosphere (reforestation/afforestation) because it affects the ecosystem. But international trade has the potential to shift land use displacement to countries with more efficient "environmentally friendly" production systems. Moreover, experts have argued that trade policy can support and accelerate climate action, with special measures. This webinar discussed the mechanisms through which trade affects land use change and how trade policy can mitigate the adverse impacts of land use change on carbon emissions. It went further to discuss how trade can affect access to technologies that can limit the impacts of trade in products that would otherwise have large land use change impacts e.g. seeds, fertilizers, knowledge of land management practices etc. It also discussed domestic (and regional) policy responses which seek to mitigate the economic damage, especially in developing countries. |

| Results and Impact | Article in the Financial Times re: CBD CoP15 and Nature Positive. Professor EJ Milner-Gulland, professor of biodiversity and head of the department of zoology at the University of Oxford, said some of the targets lacked concrete language. "You look at the detail for the targets, which are for 2030, they'll tend to have quite generic words like 'enhance' biodiversity, or 'ensure that it's sustainable', and that kind of stuff is quite slippery," said Milner-Gulland. "It's really hard for countries to say - well, what am I going to do by 2030?" She added that while the so-called "30 by 30" commitments were "good", they would "not solve the problem". "It's very, very clear from scientific evidence that the only way to actually halt and reverse biodiversity loss is to tackle the underlying drivers of biodiversity loss . . . and those are unsustainable consumption, damaging supply chains and overconsumption by wealthy countries," Milner-Gulland said. |

| Results and Impact | This side event, hosted by the IUCN SSC/CEESP Sustainable Use and Livelihoods Specialist Group, and organised in collaboration with the University of Oxford, showcased recent research on the effectiveness of CITES. In particular, it shared the results of a content analysis of proposals to amend the CITES Appendices between 2007 and 2022 to explicate the sort of information that the CITES Parties consider in listing decisions. It then discussed two theories of change for CITES: 1) based on the Convention's current design, which was used to critically evaluate the effectiveness of the treaty, and 2) a modified theory of change articulating how CITES could be more effective in the future. Finally, a second talk used African megafauna as a case study and examined the impact of CITES trade measures on such species and how the Convention does, and does not, facilitate the conservation of these species in diverse contexts and some of the reasons why, including the gaming of CITES by policy entrepreneurs. The talks generated many questions and points of discussion from Party representatives and observer organisations. |

| Results and Impact | Another contentious issue was the lack of inclusion of "nature-positive", which many scientists said was important to get into the final text as a signal of the sort of ambition that should be agreed. "Although the 2030 goal of 'take urgent action to halt and reverse biodiversity loss' is weaker than 'to halt and reverse', this is still a strong call to action," said the Oxford biology professor EJ Milner-Gulland. "I think the main issue is that the can is being kicked down the road. as we are lacking clear targets and milestones for many of the most important things." However, she said it was good to see concrete figures on the finance side. "I also just hope that we get some kind of deal that we can work with, even if it's imperfect - every deal is a compromise," she said. |

| Results and Impact | As part of the CBI's current initiative to fight illegal trafficking of wildlife, we organized two training workshops on studying illegal pangolin trafficking using a recently-developed DNA analysis tool called 'Genoscape'. The Genoscape approach is based on sequencing and analysis of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs), and it creates a map of genetic variation across a geographic distribution for a species, created using DNA from the individual samples. Genoscape is particularly suited to mapping and identifying the origins of illegally trafficked wild animals, so allowing scientists and wildlife protection agencies to understand exactly where vulnerable populations are, making conservation and protection efforts more efficient. Genoscape is also currently exploited in the ongoing UCLA's Bird Genoscape Project in order to map the population-specific migratory flyways of 100 species of Neotropical migratory birds. The first workshop was a 2-day workshop (14-15 Oct 2019) targeted towards policy makers and environmental NGOs. 38 participants from 4 countries (Cameroon, Congo Republic, Gabon and the Democratic Republic of Congo) attended the first workshop. These participants included policy makers from Government forestry services and research institutes, NGO leaders and university dons. The policy makers went through a review of laws on pangolin trade and use, as well as a review of historical and current pangolin trade. They were then exposed to the traditional tools for pangolin trade management and were called upon to reflect on the state of pangolin anti-trafficking efforts in Congo Basin. Finally, a general overview of the Genoscape method (How to build a Genoscape, from DNA to SNP Genotyping) and considerations when building the Genoscape. Additionally, some practical examples on how Genoscape can be used as a tool for Conservation purposes and on how to leverage this genomic approach to understand the pangolin illegal trade dynamics have been described. The final phase of the workshop was a breakout session to decide on how the Genoscape could be used to combat pangolin trafficking. |

| Results and Impact | Since the advent of agriculture, natural forests and habitats have been cleared to engage in crop and animal production as well as other emerging types of industrial activities throughout the ages. The UNFCCC defines "land use, land-use change, and forestry (LULUCF)" as a "greenhouse gas inventory sector that covers emissions and removals of greenhouse gases resulting from direct human-induced land use such as settlements and commercial uses, land-use change, and forestry activities. Over the past two decades, the global forest cover loss has almost doubled (i.e. 13.2 Mha in 2001 and 24.0 Mha in 2019), with plantation/natural forest harvesting and agricultural farming as the top two causes. In Sub-Saharan Africa, land coverage is mostly agricultural land, growing by 4 percent from 1990 to 2018, and forest area declining by the same percentage. Forest tampering has the potential to trigger both warming (deforestation) and cooling effects on the atmosphere (reforestation/afforestation) because it affects the ecosystem. But international trade has the potential to shift land use displacement to countries with more efficient "environmentally friendly" production systems. Moreover, experts have argued that trade policy can support and accelerate climate action, with special measures. This webinar discussed the mechanisms through which trade affects land use change and how trade policy can mitigate the adverse impacts of land use change on carbon emissions. It went further to discuss how trade can affect access to technologies that can limit the impacts of trade in products that would otherwise have large land use change impacts e.g. seeds, fertilizers, knowledge of land management practices etc. It also discussed domestic (and regional) policy responses which seek to mitigate the economic damage, especially in developing countries. |

| Results and Impact | The meeting was held in London in November 2019. The meeting was intended to convene leading experts to discuss the state of knowledge, and scientific and policy needs to measure and mitigate the impacts of global agricultural commodity value chains on nature and people, especially in developing countries. These issues are of great relevance to the development of UK and international policy, especially related to the Sustainable Development Goals, the Paris Climate Agreement and the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework which will be themed around 'Ecological Civilization' and agreed in China in 2020. They are also of great relevance to the business and finance sectors, working to improve the footprint of their agricultural commodity trade activities. Specific objectives included: To identify and prioritise knowledge gaps and define where measurable impact can be made To build greater understanding of the barriers to corporate and policy action for more sustainable trade and the science and policy needs that the Trade hub could support To help drive greater coordination of efforts and foster partnerships to effect change |

| Primary Audience | Policymakers/politicians |
| Results and Impact | Since the advent of agriculture, natural forests and habitats have been cleared to engage in crop and animal production as well as other emerging types of industrial activities throughout the ages. The UNFCCC defines "land use, land-use change, and forestry (LULUCF)" as a "greenhouse gas inventory sector that covers emissions and removals of greenhouse gases resulting from direct human-induced land use such as settlements and commercial uses, land-use change, and forestry activities. Over the past two decades, the global forest cover loss has almost doubled (i.e. 13.2 Mha in 2001 and 24.0 Mha in 2019), with plantation/natural forest harvesting and agricultural farming as the top two causes. In Sub-Saharan Africa, land coverage is mostly agricultural land, growing by 4 percent from 1990 to 2018, and forest area declining by the same percentage. Forest tampering has the potential to trigger both warming (deforestation) and cooling effects on the atmosphere (reforestation/afforestation) because it affects the ecosystem. But international trade has the potential to shift land use displacement to countries with more efficient "environmentally friendly" production systems. Moreover, experts have argued that trade policy can support and accelerate climate action, with special measures. This webinar discussed the mechanisms through which trade affects land use change and how trade policy can mitigate the adverse impacts of land use change on carbon emissions. It went further to discuss how trade can affect access to technologies that can limit the impacts of trade in products that would otherwise have large land use change impacts e.g. seeds, fertilizers, knowledge of land management practices etc. It also discussed domestic (and regional) policy responses which seek to mitigate the economic damage, especially in developing countries. |

| Results and Impact | At Cop15, the general idea is to bend the curve on biodiversity loss so there will be more nature in 2030 than there was in 2020, and then reach full ecosystem recovery by 2050. Oxford biology professor EJ Milner-Gulland argued earlier this year that nature positive is crucial for communicating measurable improvements in biodiversity, but warned that it was already being watered down by corporations. "It is already starting to feel like any actions that increase biodiversity anywhere, and by any amount, can be called nature positive. This trend has to be resisted," she argued. |

| Results and Impact | A historic deal has been struck at the UN's biodiversity conference, Cop15, which will set a course for nature recovery from now until 2050, including a target to protect 30% of the planet for nature by the end of the decade. One of the key phrases guiding the summit across the two weeks of negotiations was 'nature positive'. Madeleine Finlay hears from the biodiversity reporter Phoebe Weston about what 'nature positive' meant at Cop15, and what she'd like to see from countries now the final agreement has been made, and speaks to biodiversity professor EJ Milner-Gulland about how to stop the term 'nature positive' becoming another way for companies to greenwash their businesses. |
