A key objective of the Intergovernmental 
Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity 
and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) is to 
provide Governments, the private sector 
and civil society with scientifically credible 
and independent up-to-date assessments 
of available knowledge for better evidence-informed policy 
decisions and action at the local, national, regional and 
global levels.
