Global Biodiversity Framework Task Force
IUCN Species Survival Commission
This panel and Q&A forum was held as part of the World Species Congress in May 2024. The panel discussed pathways to more justice-informed conservation approaches in relation to global conservation policy and the newly agreed Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. You can find a recording of the panel below.
Please let us know your thoughts on justice-informed species conservation and the Global Biodiversity Framework by taking part in the survey below.
The Global Biodiversity Framework Task Force assists with the implementation of the Global Biodiversity Framework by supporting the development of IUCN position papers and developing information documents for meetings of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). Please find below an archive of our policy support at the 26th meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice (SBSTTA-26) and the 4th meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Implementation (SBI-4).
The Post-2020 Biodiversity Framework Task Force contributed to IUCN position papers and information documents as part of the negotiatons on progress towards the Aichi targets, and during the development of the post-2020 biodiversity framework.
The Task Force has contributed to a range of scientific publications, reports, and tools relating to species conservation. See our archive below.

The World Species Congress is taking place virtually across 24 hours on May 15 and includes a packed programme on species recovery efforts, global and local conservation policy, and actions to ensure the survival of wild species and ecosystems.
We are very excited to be hosting two events during the Congress. Phil McGowan and Alison Hutchinson will be running sessions in the morning, so please do join us! You can find the Agenda here.
Talk 1: Justice-informed species conservation and the Global Biodiversity Framework
Alison will present a Q&A forum with Ragnhild Sollund (University of Oslo), Dany Celermajer (University of Sydney), and Carlos Andrés Baquero-Díaz (New York University). The panel will discuss pathways to more justice-informed conservation approaches in relation to global conservation policy and the newly agreed Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
Talk 2: The Strategy Needed to Achieve Target 4 of the Global Biodiversity Framework
Phil will present on the species elements of the Global Biodiversity Framework, which emphasises the need for urgent management actions to ensue the recovery of threatened species. The presentation will outline the species-related ambitions and goals within the Framework and give a broad overview of the need to develop strategies to ensure positive species outcomes.
