At COP16 Colombia JNCC’s CEO, Dr Gemma Harper OBE FAcSS, provided the closing remarks at the launch of The Global Biodiversity Standard (TGBS), hosted by the Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI) at the beautiful Botanic Gardens in Cali, Colombia 🌸 biodiversitystandard.org TGBS is a certification designed to ensure nature-based solutions are protecting, enhancing and restoring biodiversity. With UK funding, TGBS has been developed by a coalition of global scientific experts, including Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, to support the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). The event was hosted by Professor Peter Wyse Jackson, Missouri Botanical Garden, with inspiring presentations by Carly Cowell, Director Conservation Policy and Practice, BGCI, David Bartholomew, TGBS Project Manager, and Dr Leonardo Salgado, Botanic Gardens of Rio de Janeiro, as well as excellent panel discussions and presentation of the first certifications. 🗣 Gemma wrapped up the event, celebrating the inclusive, collaborative and innovative way in which the certification was developed, highlighting TGBS's message of hope for the future - high nature, low carbon to support implementation of the GBF, and reiterating the importance of nature recovery for net zero as a key message from CBD COP16 to UNFCCC COP29. #COP16Colombia #NatureRecovery #NatureBasedSolutions #GlobalBiodiversityFramework #HighNature #LowCarbon #NetZero #COP29
