اعضای PRRI شرکت کننده در کنفرانس تنوع زیستی سازمان ملل 2024

اعضای PRRI از 21 اکتبر تا 1 نوامبر 2024 به عنوان ناظر در کنفرانس تنوع زیستی سازمان ملل 2024, در کالی, کلمبیا.

کنفرانس تنوع زیستی سازمان ملل 2024 را شامل می شود:

• the شانزدهمین نشست کنفرانس اعضای کنوانسیون تنوع زیستی (CBD-COP16),
• the یازدهمین نشست کنفرانس طرفین به عنوان نشست طرفین پروتکل کارتاخنا در مورد ایمنی زیستی (CPB-MOP11), و
• the پنجمین اجلاس کنفرانس طرفین به عنوان نشست طرفین پروتکل ناگویا در مورد دسترسی و اشتراک منافع (NP-MOP5).

کنفرانس تنوع زیستی سازمان ملل 2024 serves as a key forum for global negotiations on biodiversity, biosafety, and equitable genetic resource sharing, aimed at advancing the objectives of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), its protocols, and the Global Biodiversity Framework. Public research organisations such as PRRI play a indispensable role in these discussions by advocating for science-based policies, enhancing collaboration, and supporting innovation.

The main aim of participation of PRRI members in COPs and MOPs is to stay abreast – و اعضای علاقه مند PRRI را در جریان قرار دهید – از تحولات مذاکرات بین المللی, and to bring a voice to the table that emphasizes science, نوآوری, and evidence-based solutions to the objectives of the CBD and its protocols. برای این منظور, PRRI members engaged with many delegates from Parties and other observers delegations.

In the preparation for and participation UN Biodiversity Conferences PRRI closely collaborates with other member organisations of the ائتلاف نوآوری تنوع زیستی.

PRRI delegates focused on building strong collaborative relationships, and also participated actively in the Academia and Research caucus, in which COOPMOP2024 delegates registered under ‘Academia and Research’ collaborate (آ&R contacts: Audrey Wagner (audrey.wagner @ biology.ox.ac.uk) and Hannah Nicholas (hannah.nicholas @ biology.ox.ac.uk).

PRRI members contributed to the opening and closing statements of the A&R group:

• COPMOP 2024 – Academia and Research Organizations – کنفرانس تنوع زیستی سازمان ملل متحد 2024 – Opening Statement
• COPMOP 2024 – Academia and Research Organizations – کنفرانس تنوع زیستی سازمان ملل متحد 2024 – Closing Statement
