International Day for Biological Diversity 2020 is being celebrated on 22 May with the theme "Our solutions are in nature."

About:

  • The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) is the international legal instrument for "the conservation of biological diversity" that has been ratified by 196 nations.

  • Given the importance of awareness for the implementation of the Convention, the General Assembly proclaimed 22 May, the date of the adoption of its text, as the International Day for Biological Diversity by its resolution in 2000.
