On Tuesday, 10 December 2013, the second meeting of the Plenary of the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES-2) reconvened in Antalya, Turkey. In the morning, delegates continued discussion on: the initial work programme of the Platform, including the draft work programme for 2014-2018 and the conceptual framework; the financial and budgetary arrangements for 2014-2018; and options for the trust fund and financial procedures. In the late morning and afternoon, delegates turned to the rules and procedures for the Platform’s operation.
