Organized by the Cohab Initiative Secretariat with a Steering Committee spanning the CBD Secretariat, UNEP, WHO, FAO, UNDP, UNEP-WCMC, OHCHR, and IUCN, Cohab 3 will convene national and local governments, IGOs, NGOs, academia, and Indigenous and community representatives under the theme "Partnerships for People and Planet" to examine the interlinkages between the global health and biodiversity crises, including their nexus with climate, water, food, and nutrition security. Sessions span six themes: Pandemic Prevention, Biodiversity for Food and Nutrition, Oceans and Health, Health Equity for Women and Youth, Disaster Risk Reduction, and Urban Community Health and Well-being. The conference forms part of a 2026-2030 partnership-building process and its outcomes will feed into CBD COP17 in Armenia and UNFCCC COP31 in Turkey later in 2026.
