• Projects which embed biodiversity assessment, management and conservation into British American Tobacco’s operations. These projects are developed jointly between NGO partners and British American Tobacco Operating Companies.
• Projects which aim to achieve improved conservation of biodiversity in areas of mutual interest. These projects are proposed by individual NGO partners and are usually part of their ongoing areas of programme focus.

All projects are selected according to criteria laid out in the Memorandum of Understanding. These include compliance with conservation priorities identified by the conservation partners and with relevance to British American Tobacco activities world wide and location in countries that are important leaf growing areas.

Project selection is through a process of comment and review at the Management Team meetings. Detailed information on this is available here
