At the beginning of this session, the head of the Programme and one of the focal points of the OBPE, noted that at his request, the Director General asked the various institutions and non-governmental organizations working in the field of biodiversity to designate focal points to supply the CHM Burundi site.

The program manager pointed out that, to date, three organizations had already appointed the focal points, including the Association for the Protection of Natural Resources for the Welfare of the Population in Burundi (APRN/BEPB), Louvain Cooperation, and Association for the Protection of Nature (ABN).

After the presentation of the new Interinstitutional Focal Points, training of the new Interinstitutional Focal Points began while the others transferred information to the Bioland site. Finally, the manager of the research, information exchange, awareness-raising and biodiversity conservation program in Burundi published validated information on Bioland.

To end this meeting, the person in charge of the research, information exchange, information exchange, awareness-raising and biodiversity conservation program in Burundi thanked the participants, who had given their heart and soul during this session to post as much information as possible. He also reminded them to continue posting more information since the assessment of CHMs at the global level is scheduled for October 2024 during Cop 16.
