While the first National Biodiversity Strategy in 2003, I am pleased to present this first update of that Strategy which is an outcome of sincere efforts by the national team working on biodiversity in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. Eleven years have passed since the issuance of the first Strategy during which time the world witnessed various changes in environmental conditions and natural phenomena such as rapid climate changes and evolving relevant concepts and principles related to maintaining biodiversity. These highlighted the need to update the National Biodiversity Strategy as to be in line with those concepts and principles and scientific advances and to mainstream the Aichi Targets (2010) agreed upon by the States Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) that have to be reached by 2020.
