VII/18 Proposals for the Application of Ways and Means to Remove or Mitigate Perverse Incentives
Perverse incentives induce unsustainable behaviours that destroys biodiversity, often as unanticipated side effects of policies designed to attain other objectives. These Proposals offer a general framework for the removal or mitigation of perverse incentives, based on a three-phase approach: identification of policies and practices generating perverse incentives; design and implementation of appropriate reforms; and monitoring, enforcement and evaluation of these reforms.

COP-8 acknowledged that these proposals need further refinenment and consideration, but encouraged Parties and governments, as appropriate, to use them as voluntary interim guidance for the application of ways and means to remove or mitigate policies and practices that generate perverse incentives, bearing in mind that perverse incentives include those that negatively affect biodiversity in other countries."
