This document presents the policy recommendations of the CBD Women’s Caucus for the twenty-eighth meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice (SBSTTA-28). The recommendations aim to strengthen and advance the effective and inclusive implementation of the Convention, the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, and the Gender Plan of Action through rights-based, gender-responsive approaches, and informed by multiple knowledge and evidence-sources.
Across the agenda items under consideration, the CBD Women’s Caucus calls for stronger governance, accountability and policy coherence; greater recognition of the knowledge, leadership and contributions of women, Indigenous Peoples, people of African descent, local communities, youth and other rights holders; and increased investment in the enabling conditions—including finance, capacity, monitoring, data and technical cooperation—needed to achieve equitable, effective and transformative implementation of the Framework.
Share these recommendations with colleagues and help advance gender-responsive, equitable, and effective biodiversity decisions at SBSTTA-28 and beyond.
