This training, offered in partnership with the UN Development Programme (UNDP), teaches participants about global biodiversity-based uses of remote sensing. The UN Biodiversity Lab is an online platform that allows policymakers and other stakeholders to access global data layers, upload national datasets, and analyze these datasets in combination to provide key information on the CBD’s Aichi Biodiversity Targets and on the nature-based Sustainable Development Goals. The UN Biodiversity Lab has high potential to be scaled up to reach new ministries and countries and stakeholder groups.
Learning Objectives: By the end of this training, attendees will be able to:
- Understand key global biodiversity and sustainable development policy instruments
- Have knowledge of spatial data on biodiversity and sustainable development
- Be familiar with the UN Biodiversity Lab structure, data, and tools
- Have the ability to apply UN Biodiversity Lab tools to their region of interest
