Explaining his idea of the new commission, Khosla says: “Well, it would be pretty similar, I would imagine, to the World Commission on Dams.

"We don't need to sell our soul" Ramesh Jaura interviews IUCN Director-General G JULIA MARTON-LEFEVRE This video interview was done by IPS TerraViva during the IUCN World Congress in Barcelona Oct. 5-14. Asked what she thought of cooperation with the private sector, Cox said. “My view has always been that IUCN was set up to influence, encourage and assist society in dealing with nature and natural resources in a most sustainable and socially-equitable manner - and business is a part of the society, whether some of our members like it or not. So my feeling is that we must engage (with the private sector) but we don't lose our voice in this engagement... We don't need to sell away our soul. We have been around for 60 years.”
