The regional DIHK/IHK Biodiversity Alliances have brought together companies and organisations that are actively involved in the protection of biodiversity. corsus accompanies local alliance meetings and cross-regional digital meetings with various coaching sessions on the topic, for example on the ‘management of biodiversity’, the ‘calculation of the biodiversity footprint’ or the ‘communication of biodiversity (internal and/or external)’.

On 15 July 2026, the final practical forum of the research project “StrahL – targeted strategies for increasing the consumption of locally grown legumes” took place at StartRaum Göttingen. The project explored the environmental impacts, market opportunities, and everyday barriers of legumes. Legumes are a central pillar of sustainable and forward-looking diet are legumes, yet their consumption in Germany remains low. The StrahL research project systematically investigated this issue and, at the event, presented its findings, strategies and recommendations for action to a broader audience. Felix Lücking, scientists at corsus research gUG, delivered a presentation on the environmental impacts of the dietary patterns identified in the project.
