“There is growing support for nature-positive approaches across society, but we still need to define exactly how the world will measure progress in a science-based, transparent way,” said ������ϲʿ�������ֳ�ֱ�� Director General Dr Bruno Oberle. “This inaugural ������ϲʿ�������ֳ�ֱ�� Leaders Forum provides a much-needed platform to shape ambition, generate buy-in from across sectors, and drive action towards a measurable, achievable global biodiversity framework.”
