A new key biodiversity platform for cross sectoral collaboration
For its inaugural launch, World Biodiversity Summit will help define what world leaders and the private sector in biodiversity and climate action need to do in the medium and long term to achieve sustainable development and hinder further biodiversity loss, focusing on partnerships and investment mechanisms as levers of progress. World Biodiversity Summit is a platform for responding to accelerating biodiversity loss, by using the Paris Agreement as a framework to learn from, promoting relevant solutions, innovations, and leadership networks, strengthening nature restoration and conservation. Nature-based solutions will be highlighted, from specificecosystems to global possibilities.

Down To Earth: A Practical Approach to Implementing the Global Biodiversity Framework
The success of the Global Biodiversity Framework requires clear and measurable indicators for tracking its progress. CBD has released standardised language and definitions for the framework, while TNFD provided a comprehensive toolkit for nature impact assessment and disclosure. But what steps should we take to scale these methods?
How can we ensure accountability and transparency in reaching the targets across all sectors and supply chains? Can climate methodologies be adapted for measuring biodiversity goals? This session brought together key stakeholders to present existing tools, address gaps, and streamline implementation processes, fostering informed decision-making across sectors ahead of COP16.
