Nature, commerce and COP 16 – Manu Caddie
Every two years, delegates meet at the UN Convention on Biological Diversity – a sort of nature version of the more famous climate COPs. This year, COP16, was held in Cali, Colombia, and there were high expectations following the successes at the COP15 in Montreal in 2022 which launched the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). However, despite some breakthroughs, funding and agreements fell short as negotiations were hampered by poor internet connections, conflicting agendas and shortage of time. Two steps forward, one step back. Witnessing from the sidelines was Manu Caddie, who is part of the Indigenous Caucus, representing the Aotearoa Indigenous Rights Trust. Manu is also a champion of indigenous IP development in pharmaceuticals and natural health.
