What we do
RSB advances the transition to a bio-based and circular economy – creating a world in which climate change has been mitigated, biodiverse ecosystems restored and livelihoods enhanced.
Guided by our sustainability framework, the RSB Principles & Criteria, we do this by leveraging our three core areas:
1) Community – enabling collaboration for greater impact
2) Programmes – building capability to make change happen
3) Certification – providing clarity on best practice
See below to find out how we leverage our three core areas.
Community
We convene stakeholder groups across the private and public sectors, NGOs and academia to define best practices, generate interest for action and drive consensus.
RSB members have exclusive access and opportunities to learn about the latest developments, join RSB events and lead the sustainable biocircular transition.
Programmes
We work with partners at a regional and global level to provide technical and strategic advice, hands-on implementation, staff training and research services, and manage landscape-level projects to develop bioeconomy roadmaps.
Unlock your organisation’s potential in the biocircular economy, and achieve sustainability goals by leveraging RSB’s expert suite of solutions.
Certification
We cover feedstock production, entire supply chains and novel technologies – including fuel, biomass and material products from bio-based and recycled carbon – as part of certification to RSB’s robust sustainability framework.
Mitigate risks, unlock new markets and demonstrate your organisation’s credibility and commitment to sustainability by achieving RSB certification.
Advancing the transition to a biocircular economy
What does advancing the just and sustainable transition to a bio-based and circular economy look like?
RSB understands systematic and meaningful transformation to a biocircular economy as a journey of three stages:
1) Innovate: where business visionaries start taking decisive action
2) Build: where collaboration increases as sustainability becomes a differentiator
3) Scale: where critical mass is achieved and an enabling environment is established
RSB’s activities leverage our three core work areas at each stage in the journey of change:
