Recognizing the need to support countries to effectively negotiate and decide on the post-2020 global biodiversity framework, the ACP MEAs 3 programme organized several training and orientation sessions for negotiators besides developing technical support documents on key issues to assist the negotiations. These include the organization of regional preparatory events in the Africa, Caribbean and Pacific regions, support to ministerial meetings in the region, one in-regional meeting bringing all the three regions together, supporting development of national and regional positions on key issues, development of an analyses paper on financing options for implementing the framework, and a policy paper on green and blue economies. The outcomes of these events and support contributed to the final outcomes of the CBD COP 15, including the adoption of the global biodiversity framework.
