Meet one of the world’s most rare and endangered marine plants found on the Galapagos Islands, a red algae named Gracilaria Skottsbergii. It is nearly impossible to observe in the wild and is used to produce carrageenan which is in great demand. #endangeredspecies

Be sure to check out African CSOs Biodiversity Alliance 's coverage on the Global Biodiversity Framework implementation in Africa, especially in minority and disadvantaged communities

One of our key messages in our closing statement with African CSOs Biodiversity Alliance at the The African Union meeting in Addis today was to encourage African governments to look for expertise and capacity on the continent for biodiversity conservation needs. Africa's got skills that we must tap into!
