BIODIVERSITY ACTION NETWORK

 

Biodiversity Action Network (BIONET) was established in 1993 at a meeting of NGOs in Washington, D.C. in response to the need for an NGO network on biodiversity issues. BIONET's mission is to advocate the effective implementation of the Biodiversity Convention worldwide, primarily through coordinated, joint NGO programs and information dissemination designed to catalyze governmental action. Membership in BIONET is open to environmental, development and other citizen-based non-governmental organizations (NGOs) committed to strengthening biodiversity policy and law, and particularly to effective implementation of the Convention on Biological Diversity. Membership does not in itself connote adherence to any specific policies or positions.				BIONET AIMS To collect and distribute information to NGOs and others of direct relevance to CBD implementation To strengthen NGO input into biodiversity policy-making, to shape governmental debates and stimulate action To help build a global network of NGOs and institutions promoting effective CBD implementation
