Today #SB8J_1, the 1st meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Article 8(j) of the CBD, begins in Panama City. Consensus at #COP16Colombia delivered the historic agreement that established it. We owe it to indigenous peoples and local communities around 🌍 to make that moment count.

The @UN is one of the most ambitious & profound undertakings in human history. A promise to solve problems together & support the most vulnerable. As we mark 80 years of this organization, let’s recommit to this promise & the actions that bring it to life around the world.

Pleased to contribute to @Apoliticalco new COP30 toolkit with lessons from @UNBiodiversity https://t.co/hOXTd2rODF

Signed. Sealed. Delivered. The #ClimateICJAO is here! A very robust reasoning of everything we’ve fought for, and everything we’ve asked for. Read it here: https://t.co/reOWTM3EoL This is #ClimateJusticeAtTheICJ. This is history.

Over the weekend in Gaza, we saw yet more mass shootings & killings of people seeking @UN aid – an atrocious & inhumane act which I utterly condemn. We need an immediate ceasefire, the immediate release of all hostages & unimpeded humanitarian access.

I welcome that the @CIJ_ICJ has just made it very clear: all States are obligated under international law to protect the global climate system. This is victory for planet, for climate justice, and for the power of young people leading the way. https://t.co/iZoKfw4tLR

#CeasefireNow #Gaza

Our survival is tied to our planet's—yet we cling to the delusion that nature exists to serve us. This mindset fuels crisis after crisis—from #climate chaos to conflicts rooted in domination & control. We need a new politics that works for humanity & our planet. @UniofOxford

This is wonderful news! Dr Yasmine brings a lifetime of experience and dedication to combatting land degradation. An inspiring leader of Biodiversity COP14 who understands that we must work together for life, land and climate.

Brazil’s COP30 president says climate diplomacy must move from words to real action. André Corrêa Do Lago calls for a “new era” focused on implementation

¡La biodiversidad tiene respaldo! Una #COP16Histórica en la que logramos que el mundo adopte, por primera vez, un plan global para financiar su conservación. Esto significa más recursos, monitoreo y un mecanismo financiero para hacer realidad el Marco Global de Biodiversidad. 🌎

Multilateralism at its best. At #COP16Resumed, countries have agreed to mobilize resources to protect biodiversity worldwide—safeguarding people and livelihoods, the planet, and our food systems. Let’s build on this momentum to keep delivering a better future for all.

Hemos logrado una #COP16Histórica que marcó un antes y un después en la defensa de la biodiversidad. Nos unimos como humanidad porque no hay misión más grande que proteger la vida y construir un futuro en armonía con el planeta. Desde Cali dejamos un legado que trasciende

#COP16Colombia + #COP16Resumed has been an exceptional @UNBiodiversity Conference with the largest mobilization in the history of the Convention and Protocols. Action keeps multilateralism alive. We will arrive in Yerevan with an action-oriented mindset for #PeaceWithNature.

¡La COP16 no ha terminado! Faltan 5️⃣ días para que comience el siguiente capítulo.🌿🌎 Aquí te contamos qué sigue y cuáles son los temas clave que faltan concluirse. Sigue nuestras redes y la web oficial para no perderte ningún momento de la #COP16DeCaliARoma 👉

Excited to be joining the Leverhulme Centre for Nature Recovery as an Oxford Martin School Visiting Fellow. Looking forward to working with @ymalhi & team on biodiversity science & policy. Implementing the Kunming Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework has never been more urgent.

As I move on after 23Y with CBD colleagues, government delegates, indigenous peoples & local communities, women & youth, civil society, business & academia, I am proud of what we have achieved together; immensely grateful for the opportunity to serve multilateralism. #KMGBF

Parties to @UNBiodiversity adopted the Global Biodiversity Framework #KMGBF knowing full well that transformative change is essential for delivery. The @IPBES #TransformativeChange Assessment provides insights into how the required change can be implemented for #PeaceWithNature.
