 Wed, 20/12/2023 ana.costiniu Malawi's Collaborative Approach: Leveraging Dialogue to Address Biodiversity Loss and Empower Local Communities English (396) The Malawi Government, through the Environmental Affairs Department of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Climate Change, is currently assessing the status and trends of biodiversity loss in Malawi in collaboration with the Lilongwe University of Agriculture and Natural Resources, which coordinates the engagement of authors/experts. This comprehensive evaluation is conducted with the technical support of the UN Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre through the National Ecosystem Assessment Initiative, under the umbrella of the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services Network (BES-Net). This endeavour was supported by the triangular dialogue tool known as Trialogue, which provided a platform for an in-depth knowledge exchange and contributions to the assessment from participants with diverse knowledge sets and worldviews, including policymakers, scientists and Indigenous Peoples and local communities.

 Mon, 26/02/2024 Amarys Preuss Swedish University and Farming data platform conduct a pilot study for measurement of farm impact on nature and biodiversity, citing IPBES highlights of the interlinked nature and climate challenges Swedish (506) The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and Agronod - a farm data sharing platform - have developed a new tool in a pilot study making it possible to calculate and report biodiversity as well as climate impacts for a given farm and/or a specific production branch. The purpose of this tool is based on the linkage between climate and biodiversity challenges according to IPBES reports: the study proposes to support agricultural actors to be able to measure their impact on biodiversity and nature.

The feasibility study includes, among other things:
- A review of 16 different international methods for measuring the value of biodiversity.
- Factors that affect biodiversity in arable landscapes in Sweden. Characteristics of the landscape and management methods that affect the nature around and on the farm.
- Factors and measures that affect the value of biodiversity on individual farms.
- Practical example of how a calculation can be done.

 Mon, 26/02/2024 Amarys Preuss Dutch Minister for Nature Briefs Parliament on IPBES 10 Plenary Decisions and Implications for Dutch Biodiversity Policies Dutch (425) On 6 December 2023 the Dutch Minister for Nature and Nitrogen briefed the Netherlands Parliament on the outcomes of the 10th IPBES Plenary session (28 August-2 September 2023).
The Minister proposes several policies to be implemented in light of the decisions adopted at IPBES10:
- Invasive alien species: proposal for the continued and urgent implementation of the European Exotics Species Regulation, introduction of a national invasive species regulation, developing an approach and national strategy plan focused on prevention and early elimination, in accordance with the findings of the IPBES Invasive Alien Species Report which highlighted the lower cost of prevention of biological invasions rather than control and management of such invasions after they have taken place.
- IPBES-IPCC collaboration: national focal points for both intergovernmental organisations are encouraged to seek more cooperation at their own level, following the IPBES decision encouraging more interaction with IPCC counterparts.
- Dutch commitment to IPBES: The government commits to continuing its participation in SPM negociations, to ensure uptake and awareness of IPBES reports and attract more scientists and knowledge holders in IPBES processes. One key tool created for implementation of this policy is the creation of the Dutch IPBES Secretariat in May 2023, hosted by Naturalis and IUCN-NL.

 Mon, 04/04/2022 Anonymous IPBES Publications Inform Handbook on the Use of Biodiversity Scenarios in Support of Decision-Making English (396) BiodivERsA and the Belmont Forum, in the framework of their joint action on scenarios of biodiversity and ecosystem services, have produced a handbook on the use of biodiversity scenarios in support of decision-making. This handbook is intended for any individual interested in learning about biodiversity scenarios, and in particular participatory scenario design and the use of biodiversity scenarios in decision-making. It builds on a variety of sources (literature, expert and non-expert consultations, interviews) to provide a general understanding of scenarios of biodiversity, concrete examples of their use and a directory of relevant resources to go further on the topic. Several publications of IPBES have been instrumental in this endeavor, in particular the IPBES Methodological Assessment on Scenarios and Models and its summary for policy-makers. Furthermore, valuable feedback wasgiven by members of the IPBES Task-Force on Scenarios and Models (among other academic and non-academic respondents) through an online consultation organized in the Spring of 2020.
