The event will bring together a number of 35 global young environmentalists, youth activists and youth experts who will work on the structure, mandate, membership and coordination etc. of the GYBN and will also establish the global network as well as develop plans and political targets for meaningful youth participation at CBD COP11.
The idea behind the GYBN is to create a global youth network that unites young people and youth organizations from all parts of the world and all walks of life through one common goal: to halt the loss of biodiversity as soon as possible ! Therefore the GYBN’s mission is to provide a global platform to get in touch with each other and have the opportunity to join forces for the protection of biological diversity on our planet. The network also aims to become the international coordination platform for youth participation in the CBD and is committed to bring the opinions and positions of youth into the negotiations. It is officially supported by the CBD Secretariat.

Environment Professionals’ Group [EPG]: Water, Climate Change and Biodiversity Information Network <http://bit.ly/EnvTalk> was established by Mr. Tek Jung Mahat <http://realisingchange.blogspot.com/> in Nov. 2005 as a voluntary service function, to promote networking and knowledge exchange among concerned professionals at global, regional and local level. Since then, it has developed an alliance of over 640 environment professionals (individuals and institutions) from over 30 countries in Asia, Europe, Australia, Latin and North America. Group’s popularity and supporting activities eventually led to birth of ClimateHimalaya <www.climatehimalaya.org.np/>, an independent 'Himalaya regional initiative' on 5 June 2007.
