Preparation: The report was prepared by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) with inputs from 33 central ministries and departments.
Global Goals: The KMGBF’s targets by 2030 include protecting 30% of the world’s land and marine areas, restoring degraded ecosystems, and halting species extinction.
Implementation: The report notes that while India has largely completed the planning and policy alignment phase of its biodiversity commitments, achieving the 2030 goals will depend on effective implementation of actions across the remaining years of the decade.
