Ecological connectivity has been described as the unimpeded movement of species and flow of natural processes that sustain life on Earth. Ecological connectivity is a central aspect of a number of goals and targets currently being negotiated under the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). It is a key element of ecosystem functioning and health in Goal A; a central aspect of spatial planning in Target 1; essential to achieve restoration of degraded areas in Target 2; important for the conservation and effective management of protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures in Target 3; and vital for biodiversity and human well-being in urban settings in Target 12.

This side event will bring together high-level representatives of governments and relevant organisations to highlight why ecological connectivity is crucial to the long-term success of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). Connectivity is also key for climate resilience and restoration, and an important factor in helping to prevent the next pandemic. Panelists will discuss how connectivity can be best reflected in the GBF鈥檚 goals, targets and monitoring framework. Contributions will also draw from a diversity of examples, experiences, and best-practices already being used at different scales to illustrate momentum across both public and private sectors that are achieving connectivity impact on the ground and in the water.
