What are the key takeaways from the 2024 UN Biodiversity COP to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity? Join this session to learn from our VU experts who are participating in the COP16: Dr. Ina Lehmann and Dr. Mirja Schoderer. The session will offer an introduction to the general outcomes of COP16, and a reflection on the protected areas in Colombia.
COP 16 is the moment for revising the state of implementation of COP15's Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. Parties to the Convention are expected to show the alignment of their National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs) with the Framework. COP16 will further develop the monitoring framework and advance resource mobilization for the Global Biodiversity Framework.
Under the logo of 'Peace with Nature', this Convention is based on the recognition of the current unequal relationships, extractive activities that overexploit the capacities of nature and that raise the need to improve the relationship between humans and ecosystems.
