Measuring Biodiversity Progress: Insights from the OECD World Forum in Istanbul

The OECD World Forum on Statistics, Knowledge and Policy held in Istanbul on June 29, 2007, emphasized the critical importance of biodiversity in fostering societal progress. The 2010 Biodiversity Target, adopted by over 190 governments, aims for a significant global reduction in biodiversity loss to enhance poverty alleviation and benefit all life on Earth. Key indicators such as the Living Planet Index and the Ecological Footprint highlight our current state, while calls for more data and broader collaboration signal the way forward.
