The Seventh Conference of the Parties (COP-7) to the
Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) will open on Monday, 9 February
at the Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Participants
will consider a range of priority issues, including: mountain
biodiversity; protected areas; the implementation of the target to reduce
significantly the current rate of biodiversity loss by 2010, which was
adopted at COP-6 and endorsed by the WSSD; technology transfer and
technology cooperation; and access and benefit sharing. Participants will
also discuss the budget for 2005-2006, financial resources and mechanism,
and guidelines for the third national report. It is expected that work on
these, and other issues, will be split between two working groups. |
