| Fundraising | The main goal of Kolmarden Foundation is to donate funds to projects that works for the survival and diversity of species and nature. This fundraising takes place all year round, for example through information and presentations towards our guests in the zoo, outreach via social media channels, by recycling plastic bottles and through selling stuffed animals and toys in the gift shops. The funds are then donated to conservation projects approved by the board. The board aims to have long collaborations with the projects, to make sure that they have a chance to make a difference and reach their goals. In exchange, Kolmarden Foundation wants the projects to send a report at least once a year, to make sure the funds are being used as agreed upon. The information given out to guests often high-lights the importance of biodiversity and the risk of mass extinction we are facing, but also give them hope that we can still turn this around. | On-going | Full activity report | |
| Education/Communication/Raising awareness | Plusieurs ONG internationales dont l’UICN et le WWF ont appelé les pays développés à fournir 60 milliards de dollars d’aide par an aux pays les plus pauvres pour lutter contre la perte de biodiversité, en marge de l’ANUE-5. | _none | Full activity report | |

II. Implementation
Activities carried out to implement this Resolution
Convene stakeholders/Networking
Policy influencing/advocacy
Scientific/technical activities
Describe the results/achievements of the activities
Note that WCC-2020-REC-109 "Increasing funding for biodiversity in developing countries" is a recommendation, not a resolution. It does not call for specific actions by the IUCN Members, Commissions or DG. Rather, the recommendations recommends that bilateral and multilateral donors, signatory states to CBD, and private sector increase funding for biodiversity in developing countries. Regardless, there are many activities at IUCN that contribute towards the objectives of this recommendation, including convening, policy influencing, and scientific and technical activities by IUCN Commissions, Members and Secretariat.
Challenges/obstacles encountered in the implementation of this Resolution and measures taken
N/A. As such, the recommendations are clear. Achieving increased biodiversity funding in developing countries recommended in WCC-2020-REC-109 will depend on political will, negotiations for the post-2020 CBD global biodiversity framework and private sector action. IUCN contributes to those activities, but they are not listed as part of the recommendation.
Future actions / activities needed for the implementation of this Resolution
Issues related to financing biodiversity conservation in developing countries are key to resource mobilisation required to implement the CBD post-2020 global biodiversity framework. Putting the recommendation in WCC-2020-REC-109 into practice will be discussed and negotiated in CBD COP15 in Montreal in December 2022. As noted above, IUCN as a Union, including its all constituent parts, contributes to those activities, but they are not listed as part of the recommendation.
Are these actions/activities planned?
Yes
