Join us to discover how BES-Net and its partners mainstream gender into the process of generating and applying knowledge on BES and its benefits for people.

Objectives:

  1. Provide participants with an overview of the status of mainstreaming gender in the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework and a brief contextual outline of the gender-environment nexus, including the key challenges and opportunities for delivering multiple benefits.
  2. Provide a platform for BES-Net partner countries to share their approaches and lessons learned on mainstreaming gender considerations into the process of BES knowledge generation and application.
  3. Host a panel discussion with gender experts and BES practitioners on best practice approaches for gender-transformative knowledge generation.

This event is co-organised by the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services Network (BES-Net) and the Sub-Global Assessment Network (SGAN).

Interpretation in Spanish, French and Russian will be provided.
