ABSTRACT In the context of an intensifying global biodiversity crisis, we provide a critical assessment of political and institutional developments in global biodiversity governance between 2022 and 2025. We note that in this period, global biodiversity governance is generating sustained political momentum and institutional innovation consistent with transformative types of change that are needed to mitigate biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation. We conclude that recent developments in global biodiversity governance contrast markedly with developments in other areas of global environmental governance, and that the adoption of the 2022 Global Biodiversity Framework has likely acted as a catalyst for increased ambition and institutional innovation.

A turning point in global biodiversity governance?
