More than 23,000 representatives from governments, civil society, media and beyond \u2013 a record number for a biodiversity conference \u2013 have gathered in the country\u2019s third-largest city, Cali, for two weeks of talks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The summit comes two years after COP15, when 196 countries <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/nature\/cop15-reaches-historic-agreement-to-protect-biodiversity\/\">committed to a global deal on nature<\/a> that set out four long-term goals and 23 specific targets to be achieved by 2030 to halt and reverse biodiversity loss. In Cali, governments will focus on implementation of this agreement, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unep.org\/resources\/kunming-montreal-global-biodiversity-framework\">Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework<\/a> (GBF), with many starting to submit updated national plans towards this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Latin America, the conference is an opportunity to highlight the region\u2019s critical role in preserving biodiversity <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/nature\/latin-america-is-worlds-worst-hit-region-for-wildlife-loss-report-says\/\">amid growing threats from extractive industries<\/a>. As the COP president, Colombia has also aimed to put issues around energy systems and transitions high up the agenda. Energy has received less attention at previous summits, but its linkages with biodiversity and natural resources, as well as climate change, are being highlighted by the presidency, and have stirred debate among participants in various panels at the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLatin America is a powerhouse in renewable energy and biodiversity and both issues are linked,\u201d Susana Muhamad, Colombia\u2019s environment minister and the COP16 president, told Dialogue Earth. \u201cWe need to start discussing that intersection so governments can create public policies that make the two sectors compatible. \u201cIt\u2019s not enough just to decarbonise. We need to also recover the ecosystems to stabilise the world\u2019s climate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cd-article-image aligncenter block--article-image block--article-image--article\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><div class=\"block--article-image__column\"><div class=\"hide-expand block--article-image__image\"><img class=\"lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20241020_opening-ceremony-of-COP16_Flickr_54082077145_9e8f0bb29e_k.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20241020_opening-ceremony-of-COP16_Flickr_54082077145_9e8f0bb29e_k-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20241020_opening-ceremony-of-COP16_Flickr_54082077145_9e8f0bb29e_k-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20241020_opening-ceremony-of-COP16_Flickr_54082077145_9e8f0bb29e_k.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 768px, (max-width: 1024px) 1024px, 2048px\" alt=\"Woman wearing flower headpiece seated in crowd\"\/><\/div><div class=\"block--article-image__content\"><div itemprop=\"caption\" class=\"block--article-image__caption\">Delegates at the opening ceremony of COP16 in Cali, Colombia.

The region is also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iea.org\/commentaries\/latin-america-s-opportunity-in-critical-minerals-for-the-clean-energy-transition\">an established producer<\/a> of multiple minerals critical for clean energy technologies, accounting for 40% of the production of copper and supplying 35% of the world\u2019s lithium, among other minerals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The expansion of solar and wind farms has, however, <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/es\/energia\/368855-los-parques-eolicos-dividen-a-comunidades-indigenas-de-colombia-wayuu\/\">led to conflicts<\/a> with local communities in recent years amid disputes over land and impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems.

The UN established a new fund for the GBF but ahead of the conference, only seven countries had so far allocated funding to it, committing a total of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbd.int\/financial\/gbff\/GEF-presentation-on-GBFF-September-5-2024.pdf\">USD 243 million<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In their addresses at COP16, Latin American governments highlighted the need to increase funding for biodiversity from developed countries. Gillian Guthrie, Jamaica\u2019s representative under the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) addressed the issue in the plenary on behalf of GRULAC, the Latin America and Caribbean negotiating group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAdequate funding is a prerequisite to implement the GBF. Funds are alarmingly insufficient.

They will give brief speeches in the plenary and may also participate in other side events in the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>COP16 is expected to finish on 1 November with an agreement on how to monitor, report, and review progress on the GBF targets. Countries should also finalise negotiations on sharing the benefits from the use of digital sequence information (DSI) on plant and animal genetic resources, and approve a plan on the links between health and nature, among other issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe shouldn\u2019t see the GBF as an obstacle or a risk but instead as an opportunity to think of a new economy,\u201d Muhamad
