The EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 was adopted in April 2012 - a useful policy timeline sets out the steps and decisons made to reach this point. The main EU nature and biodiversity page also has links to a brochure celebrating 20 years of the Habitats Directive. Birdlife have produced a website and recent report On the Road to Recovery that examines EU progress towards meeting the 2020 targets.
The 2011 report on the Millennium Development Goals has been published: provides essential context for understanding conservation of biodiversity in regions where poverty is a very serious concern. Summarises the lack of impact on forest loss, species loss, and refers to the 2020 targets. Useful lead up to Rio+20 next year.
A new European biodiversity strategy to 2020 was published on 3 May 2011, including targets for 2020 and the 2050 vision.
IUCN and others have published a report on Global ocean protection : present status and future possibilities - good overview of Marine protected areas, with focus on what will be needed to deliver the target of 10% of the marine environment under the Nagoya commitments.
