Samenvatting

In 2011, at the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), 20 targets were established to address and mitigate biodiversity loss across the globe by 2020. Unfortunately, none of the targets were globally met. The last Convention on Biological Diversity National Report of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (2019) has shown that Aruba, a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, only met 1 of the 20 targets (Sanders, Henkens, & Slijkerman, 2019). Considering they only met the target of creating awareness about the subject of biodiversity loss, it can be said that Aruba still has to make a greater effort to halt biodiversity loss. For this report, we will focus on Aruba.
