The integrity, connectivity and resilience of all ecosystems are maintained, enhanced, or restored, substantially increasing the area of natural ecosystems by 2050; Human induced extinction of known threatened species is halted, and, by 2050, extinction rate and risk of all species are reduced tenfold and the abundance of native wild species is increased to healthy and resilient levels; The genetic diversity within populations of wild and domesticated species, is maintained, safeguarding their adaptive potential.

Headline Indicators

A.1 Red List of Ecosystems Indicator definition: The Red List of Ecosystems framework assesses the relative risk of ecosystem collapse of an ecosystem type. The indicator 'Red List Index of Ecosystems (RLIe)' measures the average risk of ecosystem collapse of a group of ecosystems and allows for tracking change over time, based on genuine change in the risk category of each ecosystem. The RLIe can be calculated for any set of ecosystem types for which there are Red List of Ecosystems assessments. It can thus be calculated at the country level or at the global level, or for broad ecosystem groups (such as...

A.2 Extent of natural ecosystems The concepts, definitions and classification used have been based on the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (SEEA) Ecosystem Accounting. The SEEA Ecosystem Type Reference Classification based on the International Union for the Conservation of Nature Global Ecosystem Typology (IUCN GET) forms the classification basis for this indicator. The three upper levels of IUCN GET - realms, functional biomes and ecosystem functional groups - classify ecosystems based on their functional characteristics (such as structural roles of foundation species, water regime, climatic regime or food web...

A.3 Red List Index Definition: The Red List Index measures change in aggregate extinction risk across groups of species. It is based on genuine changes in the number of species in each category of extinction risk on The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (www.iucnredlist.org) and is expressed as changes in an index ranging from 0 to 1. Concepts: Threatened species are those listed on The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species in the categories Vulnerable, Endangered, or Critically Endangered (i.e., species that are facing a high, very high, or extremely high risk of extinction in the wild in the medium-term...

• Trend away from the target

Status Definition

• Trend towards the target

  This category indicates a consistent and observable pattern or direction in which a specific indicator is moving closer to the desired or intended target or goal. It means progress or alignment with the intended outcome.
• Trend away from the target

  This category refers to a consistent and observable pattern or direction in which a specific indicator is moving further away from the desired or intended target or goal. It means that the current trajectory is diverging from the desired outcome.
• No trend towards or away from target

  This category suggests that there is no discernible or consistent directional movement of an indicator concerning the desired or intended target or goal. In other words, there is neither progress nor regression; the data remains relatively stable or fluctuates without a clear pattern.
• No data

  This category presents the absence of a specific indicator in relation to the target or goal. It can either be an indicator that is under development; or that the target/goal does not have a headline indicator on the monitoring framework

A.4 The proportion of populations within species with an effective population size > 500 The indicator definition is exemplified in the full name, "The proportion of populations within species with a genetically effective population size > 500."The indicator should be reported for 100+ representative species per country.It is calculated by taking each population of a species, determining if each population is above the threshold of Ne 500, calculating a proportion of populations above the threshold for each species, and then taking a mean of these proportions across all species examined, as explained in Hoban et al (2023b).As explained in that publication which contains the...
