The 10^<th> meeting of the Conference of Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD-COP10), which was the most successful COP in the history of international environmental treaties, adopted over 40 decisions, including a Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011 to 2020 and 20 Aichi Biodiversity Targets. Based on recommendations from one CBD-COP10 decision, the 65^<th> session of the United Nations General Assembly declared 2011 to 2020 as the United Nations Decade of Biodiversity. Parties to the CBD gather every two years, and their twelfth meeting (COP12) was held in 2014. On the occasion of COP12, the secretariat of the CBD, together with scientific advisors, launched the 4^<th> edition of the Global Biodiversity Outlook (GBO4) and reviewed the progress of the strategic plan for biodiversity and Aichi Biodiversity Target. Following that report (Part 1), this report (Part 2) introduces the rest of the outcome of GBO4 and decisions made at COP12 as a response to the outcome of GBO4.
