COP15 BIODIVERSITY: THE GLOBAL BIODIVERSITY AGREEMENT IS STILL NOT READY. MOVING TOWARDS A FIFTH NEGOTIATING SESSION
At the end of June, what was to be the fourth and final session of preparatory negotiations was held in Nairobi with a view to concluding COP15 at the end of 2022. In fact, after the March interim negotiations in Geneva, delegates had decided to schedule an additional negotiating session before COP15, held in Nairobi from June 21-26, 2022, further pushing back the closing date of COP15.
