Putting nature on a path to recovery: how are we doing?

Wednesday 4 March

Dr David Cooper will highlight why urgent action to halt and reverse biodiversity loss is important, describe progress in achieving the goals and targets of the Kunming-Montreal Global Diversity Framework, and discuss what further steps are needed. The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework was agreed by all governments at COP-15 of the Convention on Biological Diversity in December 2022. It sets out an ambitious agenda to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity and put nature on a path to recovery by 2030. Later this year, at COP-17, the international community will take stock of progress towards the 2030 targets and 2050 goals of the KMGBF.

Pangolins: What Are They? Where Are They?

Monday 9 March

Pangolins are among the world’s most extraordinary and unusual mammals, instantly recognizable by their armour of overlapping keratin scales. Yet these remarkable creatures are also among the most threatened species on Earth. This talk will take you into the fascinating world of pangolins – exploring their evolution, unique adaptations and natural history. It will examine their cultural significance, the use and trade of the animals and their derivatives and the profound impact exploitation and other threats have had on their survival. It will also explore conservation efforts of the past 15 years and consider what the future holds for pangolins.
