Target 2.1: Recognize and transform humanity's relationship with wetlands through enhancing our understanding of wetland values, functions and services and wise use

Target 2.1: Recognize and transform humanity's relationship with wetlands through enhancing our understanding of wetland values, functions and services and wise use

Promote the importance of wetlands and the multiple values wetlands provide to people and nature and the contributions wetlands make to achieving sustainable development, including food security and poverty eradication, to transform the human-wetland relationship from one of exploitation, unsustainable resource extraction, and depletion to one where humans and nature live in harmony, including by incorporating wise use and an ecosystem approach within policy and planning at all levels.

GBF Target 11

Restore, maintain and enhance nature’s contributions to people, including ecosystem functions and services, such as regulation of air, water, and climate, soil health, pollination and reduction of disease risk, as well as protection from natural hazards and disasters, through nature-based solutions and/or ecosystem-based approaches for the benefit of all people and nature.

Indicators

Headline indicator:

  • B.1 Services provided by ecosystems*

Component indicators:

  • Number of deaths, missing persons and directly affected persons, attributed to disasters per 100,000 population

  • Annual mean levels of fine particulate matter (e.g., PM2.5 and PM10) in cities
  • Proportion of bodies of water with good ambient water quality
  • Level of water stress

Complementary indicators:

  • Air emission accounts
  • Proportion of local administrative units with established and operational policies and procedures for participation of local communities in water and sanitation management

  • Mortality rate attributed to household and ambient air pollution (SDG indicator 3.9.1)
GBF Target 14

Ensure the full integration of biodiversity and its multiple values into policies, regulations, planning and development processes, poverty eradication strategies, strategic environmental assessments, environmental impact assessments and, as appropriate, national accounting, within and across all levels of government and across all sectors, in particular those with significant impacts on biodiversity, progressively aligning all relevant public and private activities, fiscal and financial flows with the goals and targets of this framework.

Indicators

Headline indicator:

  • -

Component indicator:

  • Number of countries with Implementation of the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting

Complementary indicators:

  • Human Appropriation of Net Primary Production (HANPP)
  • CO2 emission per unit of value added

Target 5.1. By 2029, Parties have mechanisms in place, including national legislation and enforcement mechanisms where relevant, to fully implement the Convention, its Resolutions and Decisions.

Explanation: Parties can demonstrate that they have national legislation, policies and plans in place that enables them to fully implement the obligations under CMS, especially Articles III and IV. Furthermore, Parties can provide evidence of comprehensive and effective enforcement of the legislation. 

Target 5.4. By 2032, CMS provisions are included in relevant national planning processes and policies for the benefit of migratory species and the ecosystem services they provide.

Explanation: The Convention’s mandates, provisions and agenda are incorporated into national legislation frameworks and strategies relevant to migratory species (e.g., NBSAPs and NDCs).
