DESIGN NAME: Value Creation for Biodiversity
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Sectorial Communication Strategy
INSPIRATION: -Biodiversity, life and its dynamism, the coexistence, and exchange of energies that feed each other and generate value
-Collective well-being of multiple and sustainable impacts
-Preservation. Long-term perspective
-Balance and friendliness
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: A visually appealing system was developed applicable in rural and traditional contexts as well as in the premium markets to characterize products and services with biodiversity-friendly practices. This strategy addresses a multi-target audience while positioning the value for the biodiverse friendly attribute as a movement.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The system was designed to become a movement rather than a stamp or a certification by a third party. Instead, this strategy seeks to live in different contexts and evolve as a peer certification. A manual contains the primary strategy for leading institutions to promote. Also, sensitive guidelines for producers were developed taking into consideration the different levels of sophistication of their products paired with group workshops. For the basic positioning, three sequential stages were considered: Launching, Knowledge, and Loyalty. The pilot campaign was launched at the end of 2018 and it’s currently looking for further funding.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: From September 2017 to October 2018. First launching started in November 2018 and is currently ongoing nationwide in Mexico.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Our methodology consisted on an ethnographic and anthropological field research and a co-creative approach with stakeholders and experts.
1.Understand the concept of Biodiverse Friendly and the context in the six systems of production: ecotourism, honey, forestry, silvopastoral, coffee and cacao
2.Contrast findings with the experiences of the Associations of Producers
3.Validate the coincidences between systems and actors
4.Identify the differential essence of the attribute
5.Design the differentiation value architecture
6.Communication strategy and positioning strategy
CHALLENGE: - To differentiate the Biodiverse Friendly attribute in products and services within the growing market of eco-friendly products
- To define the characteristics and values of the attribute
- To generate a solution for products and services that was also functional for the six systems of production and to the actors involved in the system
- To develop a system applicable in rural and traditional contexts as well as in the premium market
- To include various institutions with a broad variety of needs and perspectives, in different stages of development
- To distinguish Biodiverse Friendly from a stamp or certification
