Biodiversity
Over the last decade, the Environment Management Group (EMG) has offered support to the biodiversity agenda, including contributions to the shaping of the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011–2020 and its follow-up. Some of the past EMG’s work on biodiversity include:
- Advancing the biodiversity agenda: A UN – system wide contribution
- Mapping Contributions of the UN Agencies and Conventions to the Aichi Biodiversity Targets
In the light of the Post-2020 Biodiversity Strategic Framework, EMG is considering a possible contribution to this new global commitment to advance the biodiversity agenda.
In that regard a first informal meeting of the EMG is planned to take place on 26 August 2019 in Nairobi, Kenya in the margins of the first meeting of the Open-Ended Working Group on Post-2020 Biodiversity Strategic Framework taking place from 27-29 August 2019.
