Ecosystems and their Services

IPBES

• Established in April 2012, Panama

• Objective: To strengthen the science-policy interface for

biodiversity and ecosystem services for the conservation and

sustainable use of biodiversity, long-term human well-being

and sustainable development

• Currently 124 Members

• Secretariat hosted

in Bonn, Germany

Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services

4 functions of IPBES

IPBES was established with four agreed functions:

• Assessment

Deliver global, regional and thematic assessments,

and promote and catalyse support for sub-global

assessments

• Policy support

tools

Identify policy relevant tools/methodologies, facilitate

their use, and promote and catalyse their further

development

• Capacity

building

Prioritize key capacity building needs, and provide

and call for financial and other support for priority

needs

• Knowledge

generation

Identify knowledge needs of policymakers, and

catalyse efforts to generate new knowledge

including:

• Be scientifically independent and ensure credibility, relevance and

legitimacy;

• Provide policy-relevant information, but not policy-prescriptive

advice;

• Recognize and respect the contribution of indigenous and local

knowledge;

• Ensure the full use of national, subregional and regional

assessments and knowledge by a bottom-up approach

• Collaborate with existing initiatives, including multilateral

environment agreements, United Nations bodies and networks of

scientists and knowledge holders

IPBES Conceptual Framework

IPBES 1st work programme

Objective 1: Strengthen the capacity and knowledge foundations of

the science-policy interface to implement key IPBES functions

Objective 2: Strengthen the

science-policy interface on

biodiversity and ecosystem

services at and across the

sub-regional, regional and

global levels

Objective 3: Strengthen

the knowledge-policy

interface with regard to

thematic and

methodological issues

Objective 4: Communicate and evaluate

IPBES activities, deliverables and findings

The work programmme is entirely based on requests from governments and stakeholders

Objective 4 Communicate and evaluate Platform activities, deliverables and findings:

a) Catalogue of relevant assessments

b) Development of an information and data management plan

c) Catalogue of policy support tools and methodologies

d) Set of communication, outreach and engagement strategies, products and processes

e) Reviews of the effectiveness of guidance, procedures, methods and approaches to inform future development of the Platform

Objective 1 Strengthen the capacity and knowledge foundations of the science-policy interface to implement key functions of the Platform: a) Priority capacity-building-needs to implement the Platform work programme are matched with resources through catalysing financial and in-kind

support b) Capacities needed to implement the Platform work programme are developed with support provided by network on capacity-building c) Procedures and approaches for working with indigenous and local knowledge systems d) Priority knowledge and data needs for policy-making are addressed through catalysing efforts to generate new knowledge and networking

Objective 2 Strengthen the SPI across the subregional, regional and global levels: a) Guide on production and integration of

assessments from and across all scales

b) Regional/Subregional assessments on biodiversity and ecosystem services

c) Global assessment on biodiversity and ecosystem services

Objective 3 Strengthen the SPI regarding thematic and methodological issues: a) Thematic assessment on pollination and food production

b) Thematic assessments on land degradation and restoration; on invasive alien species; and on sustainable use.

c) Policy support tools and methodologies for scenarios analysis and modelling of biodiversity and ecosystem services based on an assessment and a guide

d) Policy support tools and methodologies regarding value, valuation and accounting of biodiversity and ecosystem services based on an assessment and a guide

There is a perception within IPBES that the ES framework is limited. In IPBES there is the intention to assess the links between biodiversity, ecosystem services and its benefits to people. Relevant valuation perspectives were raised.

The work done within MAES at different levels (National and European) can be useful for the IPBES Europe and Central Asia Assessment as it actively contribute to the pool of data and knowledge available about ecosystems and their services (state and trends).
