Biodiversity
The convention on biological diversity (CBD) defined “Biodiversity - the diversity of life on Earth - as the variability among living organisms from all sources, including diversity within species, between species, and of ecosystems”. Biodiversity provides many essential ecosystem services for proper functioning of the earth as a whole. Much of the Earth’s biodiversity, however, is in jeopardy and facing different level of extinction crisis due to anthropogenic activities. Conservation efforts are needed to preserve biodiversity and protect endangered species and their habitats.
To achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, it is not surprising that most of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) include targets that directly reflect the important role of biodiversity. Arannayk Foundation is working with the government, development partners and forest-dependent people to safeguard our last remaining biodiversity.
