What impact does climate change have on ecosystems and species? Are we threatened? How does biodiversity influence climate change? What can we do, how can we get involved?
These are some of the questions the 2013 global Biodiversity Days shall look at and discuss.
Since 2001, The German Ministry for Economic Co-operation and Development (BMZ) and the German International Cooperation Agency (GIZ), the Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity (SCBD) and GEO Magazine have been partnering to organize and cover national action days for biological diversity in various countries around the globe.
Encouraged by these successful experiences, 2013 will continue with a scaling-up of the initiative with thematic days and media coverage in selected countries on all continents. The focus will be on the interdependence of climate change and biodiversity as well as its implications for human well-being.
The goal is to raise awareness and promote the conservation of biodiversity on a local and global level.
Stay tuned for upcoming news and the launch of the biodiversity days in 2013!
