Indicator description
Each Party to the CBD is obliged to develop a National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP), which is the mechanism for implementing the Convention at the national level. Since the adoption of the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020, Parties have been revising and updating their NBSAPs to bring them in to line with the Strategic Plan and its twenty Aichi Biodiversity Targets. This indicator directly monitors progress towards Aichi Target 17, by measuring how many CBD Parties have developed and revised their NBSAPs in line with the Strategic Plan.
