The U.N. Biodiversity Summit, COP16, is currently taking place in Cali, Colombia, bringing together government delegates, experts, and civil society representatives. The global community is under mounting pressure to take decisive action and present a comprehensive plan for biodiversity conservation.
China, which presided over COP15 for over two years, aims to maintain its leadership in biodiversity efforts. The legacy of their tenure includes the landmark 2022 Kunming-Montreal Biodiversity Framework—a historic accord where nations committed to halting and reversing nature loss by 2030.
As discussions unfold in Cali, all eyes are on China to see how the nation will continue its role in shaping the future of global biodiversity conservation.
