Global goals for nature: Tracking progress, financing success

The second edition of the IUCN Leaders Forum will be held in Geneva, Switzerland, and virtually from 11 to 13 October 2023 with the theme, Global goals for nature: Tracking progress, financing success.

Global goals to protect and restore nature, agreed to at the 2022 UN Biodiversity Conference (COP15) in Montreal, Canada, will set the scene for this year’s IUCN Leaders Forum. The Forum will bring together leaders and changemakers from around the world to discuss shared pathways to achieving these goals and help mobilise relevant groups into action.

In addition, the IUCN Leaders Forum 2023 will offer a timely platform to agree on global measuring, monitoring and reporting mechanisms. It will also provide the opportunity to tackle critical questions around financing the global goals, with a view to helping governments and the private sector fulfil their obligations.
