The Biodiversity Plan: What is it?

The challenge WE ALL FACE

HOW WILL THE BIODIVERSITY PLAN (GBF) GALVANIZE ACTION TO HALT & REVERSE BIODIVERSITY LOSS?

On the 19th of December 2022, 195 countries adopted the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (The Biodiversity Plan). Our project has promptly started to work with countries and stakeholders to kick start transformative actions for its implementation.

PURPOSE AND MISSION OF THE FRAMEWORK

The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, recently renamed - The Biodiversity Plan, aims to catalyze, enable and galvanize urgent and transformative action by Governments, and subnational and local authorities, with the involvement of all of society, to halt and reverse biodiversity loss.

Its mission towards 2030 is to put nature on a path to recovery for the benefit of people and planet by conserving and sustainably using biodiversity and ensuring the fair and equitable sharing of benefits from the use of genetic resources, while providing the necessary means of implementation.

Goals and Targets

The framework consists of 4 goals:

Goal 1: PROTECT & RESTORE
Increase the area of natural ecosystems
Goal 2: PROSPER WITH NATURE
Ensure nature’s contributions to People
Goal 3: SHARE BENEFITS FAIRLY
Share the monetary & non-monetary benefits of the genetic resources’ utilisation
Goal 4: INVEST & COLLABORATE
Ensure all Parties have means to implement the Biodiversity Plan

To reach these goals, 23 targets define ambition on various issues, such as spatial planning, restoration, conservation, pollution and climate change, sustainable production and consumption. Other targets deal with topics such as urban planning, mainstreaming, sustainable business practices, biodiversity harmful incentives, financial resources, capacity-building, inclusive governance and gender equality. You can check the GBF text here.

Achieving the ambitions of The Biodiversity Plan requires transformative change. Embedding six key principles at the heart of the GBF provides the concrete means to trigger transformative action for all levels of government and across the whole of society. Read our publication now to learn why transformative change is crucial to achieve the goals of the Global Biodiversity Framework, The Biodiversity Plan, by 2030.
