¿ What are the Trialogues? ?

• They are multi-sectoral dialogues on complex information to

generate changes in public policy and practice at the regional and national level in response to the results of global assessments IPBES.

• They are dialogues between the three communities: science,

Government and civil society.

• They are a key element of the BES-Net program of capacity building

in support of the overall biodiversity assessments and ecosystems of IPBES.

Why a Trialogue?

• The literature shows that the scientific reports and the one-way

transfer of information is not enough if same to strengthen capacities and to achieve effective and inclusive decision making.

• ¨It requires the flow of information in multiple directions--up and

down, and down-up to overcome barriers in intersectorial coordination (environment, infrastructure, agriculture, energy) which translates into conflicts in practice and the loss of species and habitats¨ (IPBES Summary for Policy Makers)

¿Why the Trialogues?

• To Bridge the gap between the sectors of science, policy and practice.
• To Create a shared space to analyze the results of the evaluation of IPBES

altogether and share regional, national, and local knowledge.

• To Identify options for public policy altogether, generate commitments

and build a common action agenda.
