The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) guides actions worldwide to preserve and protect nature – and its essential services to people – through 2030. It was adopted in December 2022 during the 15th Conference of the Parties (COP15) to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). To help meet these goals, an open-ended intergovernmental scientific advisory body known as the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice (SBSTTA) provides timely advice to the CBD COP. This week, the SBSTTA brings together biodiversity experts, practitioners, governments, and civil society to facilitate the implementation of the framework.
Under the new GBF, the CBD for the first time recognizes the importance of managed lands’ contribution to the conservation and restoration of biodiversity. Goal A of the Framework calls upon all the 196 parties to the convention to provide the enabling environment to maintain, enhance, and restore the integrity, connectivity, and resilience of all ecosystems –including agricultural and urban areas.
