Biodiversity is the living fabric of our planet.It underpins well-being of human life in present and future,and its rapid decline threatens nature and people.The leading global drivers of biodiversity loss are climate change,invasive species,over-exploitation of natural resources, pollution,and urbanization.The modern world,which harms local peoples and rare cultures in many senses,and the negative effects that occur in the system of nature,will be one of the topics of UNESCO member states in this meeting.

Around the globe,hundreds of cultural heritage items are smuggled across borders. Sometimes it is done for black-market selling or personal satisfaction, but the main idea is to profit from stolen ancient historic pieces. In the process,most are damaged beyond repair or lost.With the importance of these pieces,since they are crucial for remembering our histories and our ancestors' craftsmanship,member states of UNESCO will debate and create solutions upon the illigit situation.
