La GBO-5 ofrece un resumen global de los progresos realizados en la consecución de las Metas de Aichi para la Diversidad Biológica y se basa en una serie de indicadores, estudios de investigación y evaluaciones (en particular la Evaluación Mundial de la Diversidad Biológica y los Servicios de los Ecosistemas de la IPBES), así como en los informes nacionales presentados por los países sobre su aplicación del CDB. Los informes nacionales proporcionan una rica información sobre las medidas adoptadas en los países de todo el mundo en apoyo de la conservación de la biodiversidad, el uso sostenible y el reparto justo y equitativo de los beneficios. Este conjunto de información proporciona una gran cantidad de información sobre los éxitos y los desafíos en la aplicación del Plan Estratégico para la Diversidad Biológica 2011-2020 y en la consecución de las Metas de Aichi para la Diversidad Biológica.
Esta Perspectiva se basa en las lecciones aprendidas durante las dos primeras décadas de este siglo para aclarar las transiciones necesarias si queremos hacer realidad la visión acordada por los gobiernos del mundo para 2050, "Vivir en armonía con la naturaleza".

In the period 2000 to 2019, there were 7,348 major recorded disaster events claiming 1.23 million lives, affecting 4.2 billion people (many on more than one occasion) resulting in approximately US$2.97 trillion in global economic losses.
This is a sharp increase over the previous twenty years. Between 1980 and 1999, 4,212 disasters were linked to natural hazards worldwide claiming approximately 1.19 million lives and affecting 3.25 billion people resulting in approximately US$1.63 trillion in economic losses.
Much of the difference is explained by a rise in climate-related disasters including extreme weather events: from 3,656 climate-related events (1980-1999) to 6,681 climate-related disasters in the period 2000-2019.

Anyone who manages, works, volunteers or provides care at any type of facilities where older people recei...ve care at (long-term care facilities, non-acute care facilities, and home care services), should practice strict IPC to prevent and control COVID-19 outbreaks. It has been observed in different countries that older people have higher case-fatality rate compared to other age groups. Therefore, it is especially important to implement and follow IPC measures at facilities, homes, and other venues that older people frequent.
