Key Educational Action Plans
This page provides an overview of the educational plans that the Parties have planned to be implemented in due course of time to achieve the Aichi Biodiversity Targets by 2020. The information given here are extracted from the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP) documents submitted by the Parties to the secretariat of the Convention of Biological Diversity (CBD) either separately or as a part of the Fifth National Report. The graphs and tables present a variety of activities planned across the stakeholder groups, cutting across all the Aichi Biodiversity targets, widening the scope of education thereby. While there are new areas identified in the educational approaches, there are plans to also intensify the national efforts on biodiversity education.
Out of 100 NBSAPs submitted, educational plans from 36 NBSAPs (post Nagoya) which are in English are analysed and depicted in graphs and tables. Information will be apprised with the NBSAP updates.
