Informal Virtual Sessions
The International Indigenous Forum on Biodiversity (IIFB) is concerned that only a few Parties mention the participation of indigenous peoples and local communities in the development and implementation of national strategies on biodiversity. Further, they are concerned that Parties have not used the traditional knowledge indicators during the informal virtual session of the third meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Implementation (SBI 3) held from 8 to 12 and 14 March 2021.
