Thematic Paper 9: Enhancing Synergies to Advance Gender-Responsive Approaches Under the CBD and UNFCCC Frameworks
As climate change and biodiversity loss exacerbate existing inequalities, a gender-responsive governance approach is necessary to achieve ambitious, equitable, and lasting outcomes. Thematic Paper 9 argues that gender equality is a foundational prerequisite for effective climate and biodiversity action.
Thematic Paper 10: Resources and Platforms for Capacity Building and Development for Climate and Biodiversity Action
Achieving climate–biodiversity synergies requires sustained investment in individual, institutional, and systemic capacities, yet current efforts remain fragmented. Thematic Paper 10 identifies capacity building as a key enabler of the UNFCCC, Paris Agreement, CBD, and Kunming-Montreal GBF, supporting countries in translating commitments into action.
Thematic Paper 7: Synergies for Monitoring and Reporting on Climate and Biodiversity Actions: Global Frameworks and National Opportunities
Thematic Paper 7 highlights transparency as a shared pillar of the CBD/GBF and the Paris Agreement, illustrating that integrated monitoring and reporting can strengthen climate-biodiversity synergies while reducing reporting burdens and improving policy coherence. The paper presents the monitoring frameworks of the GBF and the Paris Agreements, discusses opportunities at the global level for enhancing synergies between them, and compiles good practices and recommendations for aligning monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) systems at the national level
Advancing Gender-Transformative Action in Human Mobility in the Context of Climate Change
Human mobility in the context of climate change is not gender-neutral. Existing gender inequalities shape who can move safely, who remains exposed to climate risks, and who benefits from adaptation and recovery efforts. This publication draws on experiences from Fiji, the Philippines, ECOWAS, and the African Union to explore how climate-related mobility programmes can move beyond gender-responsive approaches toward gender-transformative change.
Thematic Paper 1: Linkages and Synergies Between International Instruments on Biodiversity and Climate Change (updated 09/24)
Despite growing scientific evidence that climate change and biodiversity loss are deeply interconnected, governance efforts often remain fragmented. Thematic Paper 1 explores how climate and biodiversity policies can work better together.
Pastoral Systems’ Climate Resilience and Contributions to Ecosystem Conservation

Impact of Sea Level Rise on Land Loss in Vietnam
This report presents insights how sea-level rise may affect land availability across economic sectors in Vietnam. It illustrates how potential land loss across regions and economic sectors can be projected by using spatial analysis combining sea-level rise projections, elevation data and land-use information.
Vision 2025 – Final Update: Six Years of Collaborative Action to Boost Financial Protection for the Most Vulnerable
It was against the backdrop of the growing number of extreme weather events affecting vulnerable countries that the InsuResilience Global Partnership (IGP) launched Vision 2025 and took a courageous attempt to increase financial protection for climate-vulnerable communities. This final Vision 2025 Update showcases the achieved expansion of financial protection as well as greater recognition and awareness of pre-arranged finance against climate and disaster risk. This update presents the final results derived from the 2025 data collection, provides details on the overall progress across a period of 6 years and concludes this important collective effort.
