Abstract

As COP30 approaches, policymakers must ensure that the integration of climate and biodiversity action by non-state and subnational actors is anchored in spatial data. Otherwise, we cannot see where change is happening, how effective it is, or who bears costs and benefits. The UNFCCC Global Climate Action and CBD Action Agenda Portals should lead by requiring spatial details on implementation, enabling more credible and participatory monitoring, analysis, and collaboration.
