    EU submits targets for implementing the Global Biodiversity Framework

    MarineNews

    The European Commission has submitted the EU’s targets for implementing the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. They are now publicly accessible through the ’Online Reporting Tool’ of the Convention of Biological Diversity (CBD).

    The EU targets cover all goals and targets of the Global Biodiversity Framework agreed at the 15th Conference of the Parties to the CBD (COP15) in December 2022, describing how the EU plans to contribute to achieving these targets and linking to relevant legislative and non-legislative policy instruments at EU level.

    Multiple international commitments

    The EU’s submission refers to the European Green Deal. The EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the comprehensive Nature Restoration Law, with its binding targets to restore degraded ecosystems, provide a strong basis to deliver on international commitments such as the Fit for 55 Package and the 8th Environment Action Programme to 2030.

    The Online Reporting Tool is key for transparency in implementing the Global Biodiversity Framework. It is part of a wider set of provisions on planning, monitoring, reporting and review which was a key priority for the EU and its Member States in the negotiations at the CBD COP15 in December 2022.

    The EU is one of the first parties to the convention that have submitted their targets by the deadline of 1 August. The EU urges all Parties that have not yet done so to submit their national targets through the tool as soon as possible.
