Advancing biodiversity integration through the GGGI IKI SYMBIOTIC Project in Kenya

NBSAP Accelerator Partnership | Updates

June 27, 2025

To support national efforts in biodiversity mainstreaming, the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership participated in the launch of the GGGI IKI SYMBIOTIC Project on 26 June 2025 in Nairobi. The project focuses on integrating biodiversity into Kenya’s key economic sectors in line with the country’s NBSAP and the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF).

Backed by the International Climate Initiative (IKI), the SYMBIOTIC Project aims to strengthen policy coherence, build institutional capacity, and advance natural capital accounting. It will also contribute to biodiversity-friendly policy development, improve conservation-related communication, and provide targeted capacity support for both government and private sector actors.

Looking ahead, the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership and GGGI will identify areas for collaboration, especially in capacity development, to support the effective delivery of Kenya’s NBSAP commitments and contributions to the GBF.
