dc.description.abstractOn 19 December 2022, a potentially landmark agreement for multilateral environmental aspirations was reached with the adoption, under the aegis of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), of the new Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (Kunming-Montreal Framework or Global Biodiversity Framework) and other accords as a transformative road map for the current decade to curb biodiversity loss and environmental degradation. The new Kunming-Montreal Framework is of the utmost importance for Latin America and the Caribbean, one of the world’s most biologically and culturally rich regions and one that faces enormous social, economic and environmental challenges. The biodiversity crisis is one of today’s greatest planetary crises and is interrelated with other cascading crises and challenges, including climate change, worsening poverty and inequality, social and geopolitical conflicts and health-related risks. The disconnect between economic growth and social and environmental well-being also requires structural changes that integrate the three interdependent pillars of sustainable development, whose transformative potential lies in combining the economic, social and environmental dimensions (Harris and others, 2023). For this reason, we devote this bulletin to a review of the contributions of biodiversity to the region’s development and well-being and to the recently adopted Kunming-Montreal Framework. It is estimated, for example, that “environmental income” from forest and non-forest extraction in rural households in the region accounts for 31% of total income, a higher proportion than in any other region of the world. The bulletin also reviews the context of the negotiations, the main strengths and challenges of the new Framework, the rights-based approach, synergy between the Framework and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the potential contribution of the United Nations economic regions in promoting the cross-sectoral mainstreaming of biodiversity and the potential contribution of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) to addressing the main biodiversity challenges in Latin America and the Caribbean.
