IUCN Members have voted to adopt a new 20-year Strategic Vision and four-year Programme to guide the Union’s work up to 2030.
"The world is shifting beneath our feet with startling speed. Biodiversity loss has not been halted, and is converging with climate change, pollution, and inequality in ways never experienced before," said H.E. IUCN President Razan Khalifa Al Mubarak. "And yet, I am filled with optimism, because I believe that IUCN has the capacity, the knowledge, and the collective will to rise to these complex challenges. We all know that conservation works and that nature can recover. By uniting behind this purpose, we can, and we will, accelerate that recovery.
The IUCN is the world's largest and most diverse environmental network, providing tools, publications, and resources to drive change.
