This Tuesday, Katharina Maier (Federal Ministry of Finance, Germany) will join us for the Tuesday Discussion with a talk on “United Nations Biodiversity Conference CBD COP16: How Is Nature Conservation Funded? Insights From a Policy Perspective.” The 2024 United Nations Biodiversity Conference (COP16) will prove crucial in the implementation of the Global Biodiversity Framework. A key topic is the negotiation of financing mechanisms to ensure the protection and restoration of biodiversity worldwide. As part of the European Union, Germany plays a role in shaping these discussions, balancing international commitments, national interests, and responsibilities toward the Global South. This talk will explore current developments, challenges, and opportunities for effective biodiversity financing from a policy perspective.
The Tuesday Discussions are free and open to the public.
