May 22 - International Day for Biological Diversity

 Based on the materials of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection of the Republic of Belarus.
In order to attract people's attention to the problem of the irretrievable disappearance of many species of wild animals and wild plants on the Earth, the United Nations proclaimed May 22 the International Day for Biological Diversity. In 2018, the theme of the International Day for Biological Diversity will be the celebration of the 25th anniversary of activities in the field of biodiversity.
The choice of this topic was due to the need to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the entry into force of the Convention on Biological Diversity and to emphasize progress in achieving its goals at the national and global levels in a quarter of a century.
Conservation of biodiversity is a common concern of humanity. The Convention on Biological Diversity considers biodiversity at all levels - at the ecosystem level, at the species level and at the level of genetic resources. It also covers the field of biotechnology, including through the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety. In fact, it covers all possible areas directly or indirectly related to biodiversity and its role in development, ranging from science, politics and education to agriculture, commerce and culture.
The issues of conservation of biological diversity in the Republic of Belarus and ensuring its sustainable use are among the priority directions of state policy in the environmental sphere.
The celebration of the International Day for Biological Diversity is timed for the holding of a seminar "25 years of the Convention on Biological Diversity. Protocols to the Convention as instruments for the realization of its goals ", which will take place within the framework of the UNDP-GEF global project "Strengthening Human Resources, Legal Systems and Institutional Capacity for Implementation of the Nagoya Protocol in the Republic of Belarus" of March 30, 2018 No. 2/18/000874 participation of representatives of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection of the Republic of Belarus, the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus and the UNDP Country Office in the Republic of Belarus from 22 to 23 May 2018.
Each of us can contribute to the conservation of biological diversity, both at the national level and globally - by taking care of nature!
