Abstract
The National Biodiversity Strategy (NBS) is Belgium’s response to the CBD’s formal commitment to submit a revised or updated National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plans, including national targets, by the 16th Conference of the Parties (COP-16, October 2024). It provides a framework for policy development and future action development. It incorporates existing regional and federal frameworks and action plans and supports their integration and adaptation. It aims to provide strategic policy guidance so that biodiversity stakeholders in Belgium can work together in partnership to contribute at national and international levels to achieving the target of halting biodiversity loss by 2030. This will be achieved by ensuring a more effective and coherent implementation of the three targets of the CBD. The strategy pays particular attention to creating greater coherence and filling gaps in existing Belgian instruments, and to optimising biodiversity integration at national and international levels
