In 2020, countries are expected to adopt a new global biodiversity framework, ‘New Deal for Nature,’ that will pave the way to achieving the 2050 vision of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) – ‘Living in Harmony with Nature’.

This conference, organized by University of Zurich and bioDISCOVERY, will contribute to this vision, and to the post-2020 global biodiversity framework, by viewing biodiversity through the lens of an Earth system approach. The event will investigate the interconnected impacts of drivers of global environmental change on biodiversity and ecosystems, and highlight the benefits and solutions biodiversity and ecosystems provide to sustainable development.
