  • The process for defining post-2020 biodiversity goals must be fully participatory, extending beyond national delegates to include Indigenous Peoples, local communities, youth, women, and regional civil society to ensure societies adopt these objectives.
  • The document asserts that unlimited economic growth is incompatible with environmental protection and calls for limiting the influence of large corporations in policy debates and financial instruments to end corporate control of the public sphere.
  • Future biodiversity targets should include standards for divesting from destructive projects and reversing perverse incentives, as investment in destructive activities currently far exceeds investment in biodiversity preservation.
  • The statement rejects the use of biodiversity offsets and the application of a single biodiversity metric, arguing that such metrics oversimplify the complexity of biodiversity and ignore important values; instead, targets should incorporate qualitative aspects.
  • The authors argue against a framework based on 'voluntary commitments' similar to the Paris Agreement, stating this approach has failed to keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius.
