As policymakers prepare for the CBD COP 15 (Kunming, 11-24 October 2021), Co-Chairs of the UNEP/International Resource Panel have published science-based principles to help them move beyond pledges and commitments.
The report features four principles to turn biodiversity loss into biodiversity value through Natural Resource Management:
- Know your true impact - Value-chain transparency
- Plan together - Integrated landscape planning
- Grow with nature - Nature-based and circular solutions
- Value nature - Recognize nature’s benefits
Those principles are also illustrated by a selection of case studies implemented successfully around the world.
