Values & Approach

ABOUT US

Biodiversity is a human concern

Biodiversity supports life on Earth.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT

Biodiversity loss and climate change are twin crises that must be addressed jointly.

AND THERE IS NO PLANET B

The scale of the challenges faced by Nature and Humanity is too large for any country, sector, organization or initiative to tackle alone.

SOLUTIONS EXIST

We now have the solutions to transform our economies and societies. The Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), The Biodiversity Plan, adopted in December 2022 and recently renamed The Biodiversity Plan, will serve as a compass to implement them by 2030.

TIME FOR
TRANSFORMATIVE ACTIONS

Transformative change is needed. Mainstreaming biodiversity across all sectors of society is crucial. Only transformative actions worldwide will reverse the biodiversity crisis.

SECTORS

Integrating biodiversity considerations into policies, practices and economic activities that affect or depend on nature and its services requires an integrative and holistic approach.

Mainstreaming & Governance

Mainstreaming biodiversity across public policy involving all actors.

The mobilization, inclusion and commitment of the largest possible range of stakeholders can enable effective change in national policy by mainstreaming biodiversity in practice and showing how policy can support these contributions.

engaging stakeholders

Engaging all stakeholders across society and sectors.

Mainstreaming biodiversity across food systems is a genuinely cross-cutting subject. It goes beyond applying safeguarding mechanisms to tackle biodiversity loss or keeping endangered species out of harm’s way.

TRANSFORMING AGRIFOOD SYSTEMS

Ensuring transition to sustainable food production and consumption.

Cities, subnational and local governments (SNLGs) have the capacity and willingness to be cornerstones of biodiversity mainstreaming, with direct authority on spatial management at the heart of the economy, and as key intermediaries between different levels of governance.

GREENING CITIES

Mobilizing and strengthening the visibility of green cities and their contributions to biodiversity.

Ecosystem restoration can address environmental and socioeconomic aspects simultaneously, but only if it integrates local ecosystem’s needs and features in restoration plans, providing information to support decision-makers for its effective implementation.

Ecosystem restoration

Promoting ecosystem restoration and the sustainable use of genetic resources.

Spatial planning generally consists in projecting long-term goals on geographical areas, thus inherently addressing all aspects of development (environmental, economic and social).
