Video: National Red Listing and its links to the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework

We aim to not only develop a deep understanding of threats facing species but also identify ways to address these threats. 

 During this webinar, we had an interactive discussion about the uses of National Red Lists, how they can inform actions, policies, and decisions about conservation, and how they can help countries measure their progress against the new monitoring framework indicators being considered for the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework.

 Featured panelists included:

  • Jillian Campbell, Head of Monitoring, Review and Reporting, UN Convention on Biological Diversity (Opening remarks).

  • Jon Paul Rodríguez (Venezuela), Chair, IUCN Species Survival Commission (Moderator).

  • Domitilla Raimondo (South Africa), Threatened Species Programme Manager, South African National Biodiversity Institute (Lead presenter).

  • Hermenegildo Matimele (Mozambique), Chair of the National Red List Working Group, Institute for Agricultural Research in Mozambique.
