This briefing from the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) provides policy guidance for parties attending COP 14 in Egypt regarding the reconciliation of biodiversity mainstreaming with the infrastructure sector.

• The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) have issued initial policy guidance for parties attending COP 14 in Egypt to address how biodiversity mainstreaming can be integrated with the infrastructure sector.
• The 13th Conference of Parties (COP) to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) determined that the subsequent COP would continue the process of mainstreaming biodiversity into several sectors, specifically energy and mining, infrastructure, manufacturing and processing industry, and health.
