Morning Virtual: Deepening synergies between the GBF and other key global processes

Day 4 is focused on synergies and addresses whether the GBF is sufficiently aligned with the Paris Agreement, the SDGs, biodiversity-related conventions, and other new global processes such as the UN Food Systems Summit, the UN Ocean Conference and the Decade for Ecological Restoration. Two other important elements of the synergies conversation will include how and where the GBF might be retreating from the Aichi Targets, and the challenge and opportunity of elevating nature based solutions in the UNFCCC COP-26. There are many important lessons from the Paris Agreement for the GBF negotiations, especially in enabling parties to increase transparency and accountability.
