The production of the third edition of Global Biodiversity Outlook is underway. The document is being prepared as a “living draft”.  Existing sections of the text will be replaced as more up-to-date or relevant data and case studies become available.  In this way, a working draft of GBO-3 will become available in early 2009 and enable contributions and inputs from Partners at any point in time.  A full draft of GBO-3 will be reviewed between August and October 2009, and revised and finalized in November and December 2009.  It will be difficult to include information received after this date.
