Rio Tinto

In 2006, CI developed a global relationship agreement with Rio Tinto corporate on integrating biodiversity considerations into the company’s environmental management systems, including integration of the Initial Biodiversity Assessment and Planning (IBAP) approach. IBAP is a methodology pioneered by CI and our corporate partners to assist companies in incorporating biodiversity in their risk analysis and decision-making and planning processes for new development projects.

Rio Tinto and CI previously worked together in a number of places around the world, including Guinea, Brazil and Madagascar.
