UN adopts the new Global Biodiversity Framework. What does this mean for Nepal?

Priyanka Pandey, a Nepali youth delegate attending the 15th meeting of the Conference of Parties of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (UNCBD), popularly known as the biodiversity COP15, which drew to a close on Monday, stayed awake until 4 am on Monday to witness the conference adopting a new post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework.

“That was a historic moment and being here in Montreal, I couldn’t afford to miss it,” she says.
