Education and awareness
Education is essential for the sustainable and equitable use of biodiversity and its conservation. It is also crucial for mainstreaming biodiversity. The erosion of indigenous and local knowledge and the associated decline in sustainable traditional land use threatens biodiversity and ecosystems services, as well as communities’ contributions to accomplishing SDG 4 (inclusive and quality education). It is therefore vital to integrate biodiversity into education and learning program..

Lack of awareness of biodiversity and its importance is common, with biodiversity sometimes perceived as a resource to be exploited, for example through unsustainable logging or poaching of wild animals. Communication on biodiversity is a crucial issue that must be addressed to achieve the objectives of the SDGs and the CBD.
