30x30 Progress News

BBNJ entry into force

On January 17th, the entry into force of the BBNJ Agreement marks a historic step for ocean governance, strengthening protection of marine biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction. By enabling new marine protected areas on the high seas, it directly supports the 30x30 target to conserve at least 30 percent of the ocean by 2030, safeguarding ecosystems, climate resilience, and global ocean health.

Funding for 30x30 Report

At the 7th session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA), Campaign for Nature, Pew Charitable Trusts and Rainforest Foundation Norway unveiled new report revealing that while international funding has increased since the 2022 Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, a $4 billion annual gap threatens the protection of the planet's land and ocean.
