Learning From the Past to Inform the 2050 Vision

The 25th anniversary of the entry into force of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in 2018 provides an opportunity to critically assess the targets set for the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020 and the effectiveness of measures taken under the CBD and its strategic plans.

This joint event by the UN Environment Programme-World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC), Bioversity International, and BirdLife International (RSPB) is titled, 'Learning From the Past to Inform the 2050 Vision: Improving Target Setting, Assessing Progress and Applying the Agrobiodiversity Index'. It will present information generated from assessing these aspects that could, among other things, inform development of a follow up to the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020, which is expected to be adopted at the fifteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP-15) in 2020.

The meeting will also present the Agrobiodiversity Index, a tool to measure and manage agrobiodiversity in sustainable food systems, and how it can be applied to measuring country and company commitments to, and actions in pursuit of, progressing multiple Aichi Biodiversity Targets.
