World Biodiversity Summit 2024

Event Description

World Biodiversity Summit returns for its 4th edition on 26 September on the sidelines of the UNGA 79 and Climate Week NYC and reconvenes later on 27 October alongside pivotal COP16 in Cali, Colombia.

This year, the programme will be pioneering global public-private partnerships to address the urgent need for biodiversity restoration through nature-based solutions and nature-positive investments, bridging the climate and biodiversity agendas.

To foster harmony with nature and effectively enact the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, this year's World Biodiversity Summit will explore the synergies between climate and biodiversity, fostering cross-agenda collaboration and actionable implementation strategies. The summit engages companies, civil society and financial institutions to bolster support for nature, mitigate environmental risks, and amplify business opportunities on a larger scale.
