THINGS TO LOOK FOR TODAY

PLENARY: The Ministerial speeches will continue until the speaker’s list is exhausted. The Plenary will then begin consideration of all outstanding matters.

BIODIVERSITY DAY: Look for countries to consider UNEP Executive Director Elizabeth Dowdeswell’s proposal to declare December 29, the date of the Convention’s entry into force, an International Biodiversity Day when a prize would be awarded to an individual, institution or community for outstanding actions in support of biological diversity.
