“Biodiversity, and the benefits it provides, is fundamental to human well-being and a healthy planet. Despite ongoing efforts, biodiversity is deteriorating worldwide, and this decline is projected to continue or worsen under business-as-usual scenarios”. Responding to this existential need for stepping up biodiversity conservation efforts, at the High-Level Segment of part one of the UN Biodiversity Conference (COP- 15) in October 2021, Parties to the Convention adopted the Kunming Declaration, where they committed to develop, adopt and implement an effective post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF)  that would put biodiversity on a path to recovery by 2030 at the latest, towards the full realization of the 2050 Vision of “Living in Harmony with Nature.” Critically, the framework would also include provision of the necessary means of implementation, in line with the Convention and its two protocols, as well as appropriate mechanisms for monitoring, reporting and review.

 

The objective of this global project is to fast-track readiness and early actions to implement the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) by providing financial and technical support to GEF-eligible Parties to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in their work to align their National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs) including national biodiversity targets, monitoring, policy, and finance frameworks with the Global Biodiversity Framework of the CBD. Financial and technical support is provided through two pathways: first, grants made to Parties to undertake early actions at the national level, and second, a global technical support grant that will make it possible to provide technical guidance to Parties to ensure these early actions are effective efficient, inclusive, and of the highest technical standards. Each of the participating countries, based on their current planning status, will use the grant to undertake activities from the following menu:

 

a) Rapid review of NBSAP for alignment with the post-2020 GBF;

b) assessment of monitoring systems;

c) policy and institutional alignment and review of policies for coherence with the GBF; and

d) biodiversity finance activities.

The rapid review of the NBSAP and national targets will focus on identifying gaps required to align the national targets, goals, objectives and action plans within the existing NBSAP to the new GBF. The assessment of monitoring systems will focus on identifying gaps and promoting alignment between the NBSAP-related monitoring system and the GBF.  The policy and institutional  review  will  focus  on  identifying  policy  gaps  and  inconsistencies  within  the existing NBSAP and the GBF. Further, the biodiversity finance activities will focus on preparedness for developing and/or implementing a finance plan for implementing a GBF-aligned NBSAP.
