Biodiversity Projects
Initiate and implement collaborative action against the many challenges relating to biodiversity and the environment
The primary objective of BSL is to lead and execute collaborative efforts aimed at addressing a wide range of challenges concerning biodiversity and the environment. In pursuit of this goal, BSL regards its network of members, government entities, and relevant organizations as prospective collaborators in a collective endeavor to devise and implement imperative solutions, crucial for the preservation of thriving ecosystems.
BSL adopts a dual approach to conservation initiatives. Firstly, it conceptualizes projects based on identified needs, as advised by its Technical Resource Bank. Secondly, it facilitates the realization of projects proposed by its members. Expanding its reach to encompass the academic and scientific community, BSL also provides support in orchestrating projects conceived by external parties, either underway or in the planning stages. This support involves sourcing essential technical proficiency and corporate funding, while concurrently assuming the role of an intermediary between governmental bodies and non-governmental/private sectors.

New Projects
The Online Project Bank (OPB), established by BSL, serves as a repository of conceptualizations and propositions for potential projects, intended for engagement by interested stakeholders. BSL actively encourages its members to explore the OPB with the aim of identifying project concepts that align with their respective company goals and specific prerequisites for contributing to conservation funding.
Should the listed projects necessitate customization to align with the potential funder’s specifications or should an entirely novel concept be required in accordance with the company’s objectives, BSL stands ready to undertake the essential adaptations or ideation processes. This commitment ensures optimal congruence with the interests of the involved party.
