Ensure urgent management actions, to halt human induced extinction of known threatened species and for the recovery and conservation of species, in particular threatened species, to significantly reduce extinction risk, as well as to maintain and restore the genetic diversity within and between populations of native, wild and domesticated species to maintain their adaptive potential, including through in situ and ex situ conservation and sustainable management practices, and effectively manage human-wildlife interactions to minimize human-wildlife conflict for coexistence.

Indicators:

Headline indicators:

• A.3 Red list Index
• A.4 The proportion of populations within species with an effective population size > 500

Component indicators:

• Living Planet Index
• Number of plant and animal genetic resources secured in medium or long-term conservation facilities
• Trends in effective and sustainable management of human-wildlife conflict and coexistence
• Green Status of Species Index
• Conservation status of species listed in the CITES Appendices has stabilized or improved

Complementary indicators:

• Species threat abatement and restoration metric
• Changing status of evolutionary distinct and globally endangered species (EDGE Index)
• Percentage of threatened species that are improving in status
• Number of CMS daughter agreements
• Proportion of local breeds classified as being at risk of extinction
• Red List Index (wild relatives of domesticated animals)
• Rate of invasive alien species establishment

Eliminate, minimize, reduce and or mitigate the impacts of invasive alien species on biodiversity and ecosystem services by identifying and managing pathways of the introduction of alien species, preventing the introduction and establishment of priority invasive alien species, reducing the rates of introduction and establishment of other known or potential invasive alien species by at least 50 percent, by 2030, eradicating or controlling invasive alien species especially in priority sites, such as islands.

Indicators

Headline indicator:

• 6.1 Rate of invasive alien species establishment

Component indicators:

• Rate of invasive species impact and rate of impact
• Rate of invasive alien species spread
• Number of invasive alien species introduction events

Complementary indicators:

• Number of invasive alien species in national lists as per the Global Register of Introduced and Invasive Species
• Trends in abundance, temporal occurrence, and spatial distribution of non-indigenous species, particularly invasive, non-indigenous species, notably in risk areas (in relation to the main vectors and pathways of spreading of such species)
• Red List Index (impacts of invasive alien species)

Strengthen capacity-building and development, access to and transfer of technology, and promote development of and access to innovation and technical and scientific cooperation, including through South-South, North-South and triangular cooperation, to meet the needs for effective implementation, particularly in developing countries, fostering joint technology development and joint scientific research programmes for the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity and strengthening scientific research and monitoring capacities, commensurate with the ambition of the goals and targets of the framework.
