01In brief

The short answer.

The Biodiversity Nexus global programme is the shared agenda of priorities in the biodiversity and nature field that cut across countries, such as ecosystem integrity and nature data and rights, with the methods used to compare them. It is an agenda, not a claim of global offices, and each element shows its status from the programme record.

02Canvas

Scoping to review.

Canvas · scoping to reviewDesign, not a record
Global subject programme: the policy cycleA problem reaches the agenda, options are formulated and appraised, consultation tests them, the mandate holder decides, implementation and monitoring follow, and evaluation feeds the next agenda. Design of the process, not a record of a run.

05Global frame

The agreements and bodies a global biodiversity programme reads against.

Process or bodyWhat it sets
Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity FrameworkGoals and targets with a monitoring framework
IPBESAssessed evidence on drivers, interactions and options
Ramsar ConventionConservation and wise use of wetlands
CITESRegulation of international trade in listed species
UN SEEA Ecosystem AccountingStatistical standard for ecosystem accounts

A global programme supports consistent indicators; national targets remain national choices.

06Status

Work is shown as its record stands.

Programmes are listed as exploring, forming, constituted, active, paused or archived. Country and regional entries appear when a programme record supports them.

07Key terms

Terms used on this page.

Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.

TermDefinition
ProgrammeA group of related projects and activities managed together to obtain benefits that managing them separately would not, in the sense the Project Management Institute's programme standard uses.
Results-based managementA management approach in which everyone contributing to a set of results makes sure their processes, products and services serve those results, and measures progress against them, as the UN Development Group handbook sets out.
Theory of changeA stated chain of causes from a programme's activities to its intended outcomes, used to plan evaluation.
Ecosystem servicesThe contributions ecosystems make to human well-being, such as pollination, flood regulation, clean water, food and cultural value.
