Les Perspectives mondiales de la biodiversité (PMB) sont la publication phare de la Convention sur la diversité biologique (CDB). Il s'agit d'un rapport périodique qui résume les dernières données sur l'état et les tendances de la biodiversité et tire des conclusions pertinentes pour la pour...suite de la mise en œuvre de la Convention.
Le GBO-5 fournit un résumé mondial des progrès accomplis en vue de la réalisation des objectifs d'Aichi en matière de biodiversité et se fonde sur une série d'indicateurs, d'études de recherche et d'évaluations (en particulier l'évaluation mondiale de la biodiversité et des services écosystémiques de l'IPBES), ainsi que sur les rapports nationaux fournis par les pays sur leur mise en œuvre de la CDB. Les rapports nationaux fournissent de riches informations sur les mesures prises dans les pays du monde entier en faveur de la conservation de la biodiversité, de son utilisation durable et du partage juste et équitable des avantages. Ce corpus d'informations fournit une foule de renseignements sur les réussites et les difficultés de la mise en œuvre du Plan stratégique pour la biodiversité 2011-2020 et de la réalisation des objectifs d'Aichi en matière de biodiversité.
Ces Perspectives s'appuient sur les enseignements tirés des deux premières décennies de ce siècle pour clarifier les transitions nécessaires si nous voulons concrétiser la vision convenue par les gouvernements mondiaux pour 2050, "Vivre en harmonie avec la nature".
