UNDP Nature Pledge provides a pathway to transform our global systems to meet vital targets to protect and restore our planet, eradicate poverty, reduce gender and other inequalities, advance human rights, and accelerate overall progress on the 2030 Agenda. This flagship commitment will support over 140 countries to put their ambitious targets under the historic Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework into action.

The Nature Pledge will advance three interconnected transformational shifts needed for countries to address critical factors of global systems that currently drive unsustainable consumption of our natural resources:

• A Global Value shift aims to change narratives and behaviours and place nature at the heart of development and across sectors, including governance, economics, finance, health, and conservation, to drive progress across the SDGs.  
• An Economic and Finance shift will help ensure that natural capital is valued alongside financial and human-made capital by decision-makers. 
• A Policy and Practice shift aims to deliver change at scale on the ground, led by countries, grounded in local communities, and informed by Indigenous peoples' knowledge.
