    The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) was negotiated under the United Nations Environment Programme and came into effect in 1993. It has three main goals: conservation of biological diversity, sustainable use of natural resources, and fair sharing of benefits from genetic resources. The CBD provides a framework for national action in identifying and monitoring species and ecosystems. Signatories must promote conservation both in situ and ex situ, ensure sustainable use, and minimize adverse impacts on the environment.
