PRRI成员参加联合国生物多样性会议 2024

PRRI 成员参加了 21 十月至 1 十一月 2024 作为联合国生物多样性会议观察员 2024, 在卡利, 哥伦比亚.

联合国生物多样性会议 2024 包括:

• 在 生物多样性公约缔约方大会第十六次会议 (CBD-COP16),
• 在 作为卡塔赫纳生物安全议定书缔约方会议的缔约方大会第十一次会议 (CPB-MOP11), 和
• 在 作为名古屋议定书缔约方会议的缔约方大会第五次会议 (NP-MOP5).

联合国生物多样性会议 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 – 并让感兴趣的 PRRI 成员了解情况 – 国际谈判的进展, and to bring a voice to the table that emphasizes science, 革新, and evidence-based solutions to the objectives of the CBD and its protocols. 为此, 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 生物多样性创新联盟.

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 (一&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 – 联合国生物多样性会议 2024 – Opening Statement
• COPMOP 2024 – Academia and Research Organizations – 联合国生物多样性会议 2024 – Closing Statement

上 26 十月 2024, PRRI members also participated in an 一&R ‘Flash Talk’ side event (Links to presentations below).
