Biodiversity Convention

Green = signed and ratified Violet = signed but not ratified Orange = no signature

The Convention on Biological Diversity is a treaty created from signature at Rio Summit on 1992. The Last Conference of Parties took place at Sharm-El Sheikh in Egypt on 2018.

There have been criticisms against CBD that the Convention has been weakened in implementation due to the resistance of Western countries to the implementation of the pro-South provisions of the Convention.
