"They are intrinsically related to CBD's targets and KEY since they enable knowledge flow among different knowledge systems."
Introducing the Global Ecosystems Atlas to the expert community #GEOBONconf2023.
The Atlas will build on GEO initiatives like @GEOBON_org substantive global partnerships on nature monitoring to deliver the first ever synthesis map of ecosystems and enable consistent reporting.
Jillian Campbell @JillStats, head of monitoring, review & reporting at @UNBiodiversity, speaks about the importance of #biodiversity monitoring mechanisms to help countries achieve the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework goals and targets.🌱
#GEOBONconf2023#KMGBF
Excited to facilitate today’s operational launch of NBSAP accelerator partnership.
We have the most ambitious global agreement on biodiversity🌱- our blueprint 2protect 🌎.
The Accelerator supports implementation at country level, together 🤲 .

In order to be able to make biodiversity decisions requires understanding the intersections between ecosystems, connectivity, integrity and condition. Bring the best available science on specific ecosystems together is a first step. @UNBiodiversity
The GEO Global Ecosystems Atlas will make it possible to monitor all of the world’s ecosystems, helping countries report on #biodiversity and #climate and unlocking action to protect nature. Register for tomorrow's #GEOSymposium to find out more:

"Changing the course of Biodiversity takes time. The Global Biodiversity Framework recognises that we need to act NOW to see results in 2050, and to adopt additional targets at future #COPs as needed" - Jillian Campbell, CBD secretariat at #BiodiversaPrague2023
Happening tomorrow, 3 March 2022 at 7am EST. You will learn more about headline indicators for post-2020 global #biodiversity framework.
Still time to register:

Scientists have spoken, now it's time for negotiators to use this information for an ambitious, science-based #post2020 global biodiversity framework. @BasilevanHavre with concluding remarks at the first joint webinar @GEOBON_org@biodiscoveryIPO
We share this planet with millions of other species. 🌏
We have a responsibility to protect it — for other species, and for ourselves.
Healthy ecosystems and #biodiversity underpin human lives, livelihoods and well-being, as well as our ability to address the #ClimateCrisis.
Today we concluded the High-Level Segment of the first part of #COP15.
My thanks to our hosts in China and all those who participated around the world. The past two days have seen a number of major commitments, the adoption of the Kunming Declaration & vital momentum #ForNature.
