In its decision 15/4, the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity adopted the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and noted that its implementation would be supported by decisions 15/5, 15/6, 15/7, 15/8, 15/9 and 15/13, which it affirmed to be of equal standing to the Framework. The Conference of the Parties also noted that the implementation of the Framework would be supported by relevant decisions adopted by the Conference of the Parties serving as the meetings of the Parties to the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety and the Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Arising from their Utilization, in particular the Implementation Plan for the Cartagena Protocol and the Capacity building Action Plan for the Cartagena Protocol. In its decision 15/6, the Conference of the Parties adopted an enhanced multidimensional approach to planning, monitoring, reporting and review, with national biodiversity strategies and action plans, revised or updated in alignment with the Framework and its goals and targets, as the main vehicle for the implementation of the Framework. The Conference of the Parties requested Parties to revise and update their national biodiversity strategies and action plans and to submit them by the sixteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties. In its decision 15/7, the Conference of the Parties encouraged Parties to develop, update and implement national biodiversity finance plans or similar instruments, on the basis of the national biodiversity strategies and action plans. In its decision 15/8, the Conference of the Parties urged Parties to integrate capacity-building and development components in their updated national biodiversity strategies and action plans, and/or to develop dedicated biodiversity capacity-building and development action plans, and programmes, as appropriate and requested the Executive Secretary to support and advise Parties on ways of doing so. In its decision 15/6, the Conference of the Parties also requested the Executive Secretary to support the operationalization of the enhanced multidimensional approach to planning, monitoring, reporting and review, including by collaborating with relevant partners to provide necessary capacity-building and other support, and by supporting the Subsidiary Body on Implementation in the further development and piloting of a modus operandi of an open-ended forum for the voluntary country review of implementation. Pursuant to those decisions, since August 2023, the Secretariat has organized a series of regional and subregional dialogues on national biodiversity strategies and action plans with a dual purpose of (a) supporting national biodiversity strategy and action plan development and implementation though the sharing of experiences, good practices and lessons learned, including ways and means to address challenges; and (b) contributing to the development of the pilot openended forum for the voluntary country review of implementation under the Subsidiary Body on Implementation, requested by the Conference of the Parties in its decision 15/6 and described in document CBD/SBI/4/4/Add. Twelve dialogues were conducted between August 2023 and September 2024. At the closing of each dialogue, participants agreed on a summary of key points or conclusions that had emerged from the discussions, including common challenges, lessons learned, best practices and opportunities. The present document contains an overview of the content and format of the dialogues (sect. II) and a summary and conclusion of the findings from these dialogues (sect. III).
