Global commitments to the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity

Goals CBD

The Goals of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) establish a global framework for the conservation, sustainable use and the equitable distribution of the benefits of biodiversity. These goals seek to reduce the loss of species, protect key ecosystems, to promote the participation of communities in environmental management and to promote the integration of biodiversity into sustainable development policies. Through strategies and international commitments, countries are working to ensure the protection of the natural resources and ecosystem resilience against threats such as climate change and environmental degradation.
