Register here

This event will offer an in-depth exploration of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) as a multilateral environmental agreement and its role in shaping national biodiversity strategies through the 2022 Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework. It will provide insights into the forthcoming CBD COP16 in Cali, Colombia, in October 2024, highlighting the anticipated central outcome: a global action plan on biodiversity and health. Attendees will gain understanding of the interlinkages between biodiversity and human health, along with environmental-health risks and challenges. The event will provide an update on the intergovernmental process to draft a global action plan on biodiversity and health, following formal peer review and initial intersessional negotiations earlier in May.
