Activities
The Japan Biodiversity Fund (JBF) has supported and conducted a diverse and far-reaching portfolio of activities. Initially, the Fund focused on raising awareness of the COP10 outcomes and supporting revisions of National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs) as requested by COP decision X/2. In 2015, the focus shifted to NBSAP implementation support and capacity-building of developing countries.
