When: Second part from 25 April - 8 May 2022; in-person, Kunming, China
The first part was held online from 11 - 15 October 2021.
Despite on-going efforts, biodiversity is deteriorating worldwide and this decline is projected to worsen with business-as-usual scenarios. The UN Biodiversity Conference will convene governments from around the world to agree to a new set of goals for nature over the next decade through the Convention on Biological Diversity post-2020 framework process. The framework sets out an ambitious plan to implement broad-based action to bring about a transformation in society's relationship with biodiversity and to ensure that, by 2050, the shared vision of living in harmony with nature is fulfilled.

The Conference will also look at the implementation of the protocols of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) that deal with the fair and equitable sharing of benefits from the use of nature, and the safe transport, handling and labelling of Living Modified Organisms.

The first part of COP-15 included the opening of the Meetings and addressed agenda items that were identified as essential for the continuation of the operations of the Convention and the Protocols by the Bureau. This included meetings about administrative matters and technical issues related to CBD programmes.

There was also a high-level segment on 12 and 13 October 2021. Participants focused on the development of the post-2020 global biodiversity framework.

All sessions at COP-15 will be streamed live at cbd.int/live and the main schedule is also available.

State of our common home

Our common home and common family are suffering. The climate emergency is causing rising seas, a warmer planet, and more extreme weather, all of which are devastating God's creation.

At the same time, biologists estimate that we're driving species to extinction at a rate of 100 to 1,000 times their usual rate. "We have no such right" (Laudato Si' 33).

Our opportunity

Last year, more than 120,000 Catholics and 420 organizations, representing hundreds of thousands of people, united and signed the Healthy Planet, Healthy People petition. Those signatures were presented at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow.

This year, at the United Nations Biodiversity Conference later, world leaders can set meaningful targets to protect creation. Ahead of that vital meeting, it is our responsibility as Catholics to lift up the voices of the most vulnerable and advocate on their behalf. We must act now.

In his encyclical Laudato Si', Pope Francis invites us all to have a conversation about how we are shaping the future of our planet. We all love something that is affected by climate change, from our global neighbours living in poverty to treasured places here in the UK. It is something worth talking about.

We need to talk...

"I urgently appeal, then, for a new dialogue about how we are shaping the future of our planet. We need a conversation which includes everyone."

Pope Francis

CAFOD joins the Climate Coalition's Show the Love campaign every Valentine's Day to start conversations about how the things we love are affected by climate change. Show your love for our common home by starting a conversation about climate change and how it affects our global neighbours.

This page is full of resources, prayers and creative ideas to help you get talking about climate change with your parish, friends, family and even your MP.

Sustainable Development Goals

A healthy environment plays a key role in meeting many of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. With a little over 10 years left to meet the target date of 2030, the world will need to pick up the pace and put greater efforts in finding better solutions to pollution, climate change and biodiversity loss in order to truly transform societies and economies.
