  • Publication | 2026
Global Food and Nutrition Security

This practical guide, jointly produced by UNEP, Bioversity International and UNDP with the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership supports countries in integrating gender equality into national biodiversity strategies and action plans. Drawing on 18 months of piloting in Antigua and Barbuda, Comoros, Costa Rica, Eswatini, Tajikistan, Thailand and Togo, it proposes a flexible five-step co-creation process: establishing a multisectoral working group, engaging relevant actors, analysing the gender–biodiversity nexus, prioritising actions, and developing a costed implementation plan.
