As we approach COP16.2, the CBD Women’s Caucus presents our position paper, outlining our policy recommendations for key items on the agenda. This paper reflects our commitment to ensuring that gender justice, human rights, and the voices of rights holders—especially women, Indigenous Peoples, local communities, and youth—are integral to biodiversity policies and actions under the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF).

In this paper, we propose critical amendments and recommendations for the negotiation documents, aimed at embedding gender-responsive, inclusive, and rights-based approaches into the key items for discussion at COP16.2:

1. Monitoring Framework for the Kunming-Montreal GBF

2. Enhanced Multidimensional Approach to Planning, Monitoring, Reporting, and Review

3. Cooperation with International Organisations and Bodies Established Under Other Conventions

4. Resource Mobilisation

5. Financial Mechanism

6. Multi-year Programme of Work of the COP

CBD COP16’ outcomes from a gender lens

c1652146 — Sun, 22 Dec 2024 00:21:30 +0000

This article, presented by the CBD Women’s Caucus, provides an in-depth analysis of the CBD COP16 outcomes through a gender justice lens, celebrating achievements and identifying gaps as we prepare for COP17.

COP16 was the first implementation-focused COP under the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). Key decisions on resource mobilisation, monitoring, and National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs) were expected. While hailed as a “People’s COP,” critical gaps in integrating human rights and gender justice persist.

Next Steps for Gender Justice in Biodiversity Policy

As we look toward COP17, the CBD Women’s Caucus calls on Parties to:

1. Embed Human Rights: Integrate human rights and gender-responsive policies as core principles in biodiversity governance.

2. Inclusive NBSAPs: Ensure women, youth, and Indigenous Peoples and local communities actively participate in planning, implementation, and monitoring.

3. Gender-Responsive Monitoring: Develop robust indicators and collect gender-disaggregated data to track progress effectively.

4. Strengthen Gender Focal Points: Support gender and biodiversity focal points with adequate resources for coordination and policy delivery.

5. Equitable Resource Mobilisation: Ensure financial mechanisms are accessible, fair, and prioritise historically marginalised groups.

6. Gender-responsive Capacity Building: Facilitate women’s engagement in biodiversity governance via targeted capacity-building and networking.
