The Regime Building of the Convention on Biological Diversity on the Road to Nairobi

Abstract

The United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity touches upon the most basic of our daily activities: eating, drinking, clothing, housing. Where we obtain food, what quality water we drink, how we cure diseases, where we are able to enjoy recreational activities and where we obtain the most important resources such as timber, hemp, rattan, or cotton to clothe, construct and the creation of various kinds of utensils. In short, the Convention perhaps encapsulates all that we do, need or use in our day to day life.
