Some of you may recall from our previous blog post that OneNature worked with the World Federation for Animals (WFA) and other partners on a position paper which outlined specific recommendations on how to improve the first draft of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). The primary recommendations in the position paper sought to change the fact that the Post-2020 GBF currently has a very human-centric approach. It is imperative that we rid ourselves of the harmful narrative that mankind is superior and separate from nature and that our primary objective in conservation should be to ensure our continued access to natural resources for economic gain. If we do not approach the crisis of biodiversity loss with a new, inclusive vision, we will never be able to reverse the damage we have done. Last year, the world failed to fully meet any of the 20 Aichi biodiversity targets agreed upon at the 2010 Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in Japan, and only six of them were partially met. If we continue down our current path, our broken relationship with nature will ensure the same devastating results in 2030.<\/p>\n
