About the event
The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KM-GBF) agreement has received a large amount of attention. For example, a German newspaper published a commentary titled ‘The day humanity decided to save Earth’. Of course, not everyones expectations were full filled and the published text is shaped by the carefulness required in any international dialog. Given the significance of the KMGBF, Integrative Conservation wants to provide a platform to discuss the delivery of the targets outlines in the pathway toward biodiversity conservation outlined in the statement. In this month’s Integrative Conservation Webinar Series we will hold an online panel discussion with three outstanding conservation scientists who attended the COP-15 meeting in Montreal in December 2022 and who will discuss the their views on KMGBF’s significance, implications, and hurdles.
