The COP on Biodiversity takes place every 2 years. In 2022, it resulted in an agreement on the Global Framework for Biodiversity, which sets targets for signatory countries to protect biodiversity by 2030 and 2050. The aim of COP 2024 will be to establish an operational framework for the monitoring of member states’ progress towards these targets. This will include a regular reassessment of the targets and progress, and the setting of a timetable for future meetings. The challenge will also be to mobilise resources, particularly financial and technical resources, to ensure that the Kunming-Montreal agreement targets are met.
