A recent review of the status of biodiversity conservation in Ghana concluded the 2000 National Biodiversity Strategy did not adequately respond to the AICHI targets of the global strategic plan for biodiversity. The strategy was now out-dated and needed a review to reflect current national efforts in fulfilling the objectives of the Convention. The MESTI therefore constituted a national task force, initiated studies, and conducted stakeholder’s workshops to update and reformulate the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan by aligning the targets and the action plans to the national priorities and stakeholder’s expectations. Within the framework of national development agenda, Sustainable Development Goals, National Climate Change Action Plan, Forestry Development Master Plan and the international conventions that Ghana has signed, the national biodiversity conservation vision is that: By 2030, effective systems would be in place to ensure that biodiversity in Ghana is valued, conserved, restored and wisely used to maintain ecosystem services, and sustain life support services for a healthy planet whiles ensuring continuous and equitable sharing of the costs and benefits arising there from, to the well-being, prosperity and security of all Ghanaians.
