COP17 will be the first global assessment of progress towards the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and a key moment for governments, businesses, and investors to accelerate action on nature. 

COP17 will focus on biodiversity finance, accountability, implementation, integration and cross-sector collaboration. As biodiversity loss increasingly impacts supply chains, resource security, climate resilience, and long-term value creation, companies are under growing pressure to move beyond commitments and demonstrate measurable action.
