Report: “Mainstreaming Biodiversity: The Subnational Government Experience”
AC SNG & Regions4 Biodiversity Learning Platform information document to the Subsidiary Body on Implementation (SBI-3)
The report aims at identifying existing strategic actions that can help achieve further progress on mainstreaming biodiversity. Additionally, it showcases how subnational governments contribute to the much-needed transformative change and provides information on their role in linking the different levels of government to the actions needed for mainstreaming biodiversity into and across all sectors of modern human life. It explores the potential of subnational governments and advances solutions and ideas to overcome the impediments to embedding biodiversity considerations into all sectors, and to enthusiastically advance into new paradigms, goals and societal values.
