As an observer agency of the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity, China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation (abbreviated as CBCGDF, CBCGDF) has been participating in the negotiation process of the post-2020 global biodiversity framework in the past few years. The CBCGDF delegation attended the resumed meeting of the Open-ended Working Group (WG2020-3) of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) held in Geneva in March 2022 and on June 21, 2022.
After the fourth working group meeting in Nairobi, Kenya on the 26th, this year's international negotiations on biodiversity will be summarized.
In order to promote the process of the global biodiversity framework and promote the discussion on the digital sequence information of genetic resources, the CBCGDF will invite representatives who participated in the international negotiations during the Nairobi meeting to give their perspective, reviewing the results of the international biodiversity negotiations this year, and looking forward to the possibility of Montreal.
By actively participating in global environmental governance, non-governmental representatives are striving for a more sustainable future and contributing to the construction of ecological civilization as a whole. This meeting is dedicated to summarize that to the fellows working on SDG.
