FAO and UN Biodiversity are collaborating to help countries meet biodiversity commitments, a topic discussed at recent SBI-6 meetings in Rome, ahead of COP17 in Armenia. An FAO analysis shows biodiversity loss already undermines agrifood systems and food security in many nations, highlighting the critical need to integrate biodiversity into agrifood policies.

Approaching the 2030 Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework deadline, progress requires concrete actions. Countries can implement agroforestry, restore degraded lands, and promote sustainable livestock and aquaculture. These efforts simultaneously advance biodiversity, climate resilience, and food security. Success depends on farmers, producers, and consumers. FAO and UN Biodiversity remain committed to supporting countries in translating global commitments into tangible action.

On International Day of Girls and Women in Science, we celebrate Dr. Jane Goodall, a trailblazer whose research transformed our understanding of the natural world.

Jane's groundbreaking study of wild chimpanzees challenged scientific norms. She observed their tool-making, deep social bonds, and emotions, proving that empathy is vital to science. Defying expectations for women in her era, she pioneered primate studies in the wild, reshaping how we perceive animals.

We honor Jane and women like her who inspire today's innovators and future scientists. *The Jane Goodall Institute does not endorse close proximity to wildlife.*
