Summary
Sustainable use of wild species is one of three pillars of the CBD. However, in the wake of COVID-19, the emerging Global Biodiversity Framework calls for use to be not just sustainable (and legal) but also safe. Currently there is no straightforward way to determine if this is the case. This project will bring experts together to design a multidisciplinary assessment framework to fill this gap. Partners will then test the draft framework against ongoing initiatives for proof of concept.
