INTERNATIONAL BIODIVERSITY DAY CELEBRATIONS IN MONTREAL

A special day at the Biosphere in Montreal.  Our biodiversity team did a great job reading the International Youth Declaration on Biodiversity created in part by the youth involved in our Not-for-Profit group Biodiversitymatters.  This declaration was written and edited by international youth with the Biodiversity Convention in Nagoya, Japan last October.     

Video message by Dr. Ahmed Djoghlaf (Executive Secretary of the CBD)
