Introduction to NBSAPS

Task 3: Linking NBSAPs to the KMGBF

Start

Linking NBSAPs to the KMGBF

Let’s take a closer look at how countries are aligning their NBSAPs with the global goals under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), and what this alignment looks like in practice.

Translation of global goals into national targets

National contributions to global outcomes

Monitoring and accountability

Adaptation to national realities

Callout: The CBD sets the global agenda. The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework sets the destination. NBSAPs chart the course — turning shared ambition into national action.

Close this task and proceed on your journey

Task complete

Countries set measurable, time-bound national biodiversity targets that reflect their own priorities while contributing to the 23 global targets.

Each NBSAP outlines how the country will contribute to the framework’s four overarching goals — focused on species, ecosystems, sustainable use, and benefit-sharing.

Linking NBSAPs to the KMGBF

Countries use indicators from the Monitoring Framework for the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, alongside national systems, to track progress and report results.

While the global framework offers a common direction, NBSAPs are tailored to local ecological, social, and economic contexts.
