The Working Groups addressed conference room papers (CRPs) throughout the day. Contact groups convened on synthetic biology, mechanisms for planning, monitoring, reporting, and review (PMRR), resource mobilization, and digital sequence information (DSI). An evening plenary reviewed progress and adopted decisions under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CP), and the Nagoya Protocol (NP) on access and benefit-sharing (ABS). The High- level Segment concluded deliberations.
“History is made today,” participants declared, as an evening plenary adopted the modalities for the modification of descriptions of ecologically or biologically significant marine areas (EBSAs) and the description of new areas. Over eight years in the making, and touching upon delicate political matters relating to the law of the sea, the modalities are expected to make a crucial contribution to the implementation not only of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) but also of the Agreement on marine biodiversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ Agreement).
