The Workshop aims to: exchange relevant information and experiences; consider possible revisions to the Voluntary Guidelines to Support the Integration of Genetic Diversity into National Climate Change Adaptation Planning; and discuss how future state‑of‑the‑world reports on genetic resources should address climate change. The Workshop will be held in English, French and Spanish.
