CBD COP11: Uniting youth voices from around the world on biodiversity

Jannes Landschoff, Go4BioDiv, interview: Rio Conventions Pavilion, CBD COP11, 17/10/2012 – Jannes Landschoff from the youth group Go4BioDiv explains the purpose of the organisation and how they look to spread a positive message about the value of biodiversity.

It’s members are from World Heritage Sites around the world but despite this, they have found that the challenges facing their local biodiversity are remarkably similar.

The group is also pushing for political action on the protection of biodiversity during the negotiations held through the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and has attended each round of the talks since 2008.
