Birds Canada migrates to Cali Colombia for COP16
COP16 begins today in Cali, Colombia. Which is fitting, because Colombia boasts very high biodiversity – it’s also the country with the most bird species in the world with the regional municipality of Cali being home to more bird species than all of Canada! Birds Canada is present, including myself and senior staff, along with many counterparts from the BirdLife International partnership from around the world. We’re here because the stakes are high – and we collectively understand that the fate of so many bird populations lies in the global community’s ability to meet the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) objectives. Or as the theme of COP16 so aptly puts it, humanity needs to make Peace with Nature.
