Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services
The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) is an intergovernmental organization established to improve the interface between science and policy on issues of biodiversity and ecosystem services.[1] It is intended to serve a similar role to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.[2]

In 2010 a resolution by the 65th session of the United Nations General Assembly urged the United Nations Environment Programme to convene a plenary meeting to establish the IPBES.[3][4] In 2013 an initial conceptual framework was adopted for the prospective IPBES plenary.[4]
From 29 April to 4 May 2019, representatives of the 132 IPBES members met in Paris, France, to receive the IPBES's full report and adopted a summary of it for policymakers. On 6 May 2019, the 40-page summary was released.[5][6]
The IPBES Conceptual Framework
• Explanation of arrows (dotted arrows = important, but not the main focus of IPBES):[7] [8] [9]
• Arrow 1 = A society's achievement of good quality of life directly influence institutions and governance systems and other indirect drivers
• Arrow 2 = Institutions and governance systems and other indirect drivers are the root causes of the direct anthropogenic drivers that affect nature
• Arrow 3 = Direct drivers of change are the immediate cause of changes in nature
• Arrow 4 = Direct drivers of change affect the supply of nature's contributions to people
• Arrows 5, 6, and 7 = Institutions and governance systems and other indirect drivers affect the interactions and balance between nature and anthropogenic assets
• Arrow 8 = Nature's contributions to people affect how people achieve a good quality of life
• Arrow 9 = Direct drivers of change can have direct impacts on the quality of life
• Arrow 10 = Anthropogenic assets directly affect the possibility of achieving a good quality of life through the provision of and access to food, water, energy and livelihood security; health, social relationships, equity, spirituality, and cultural identity
