The Convention on Biological Diversity  

Full text of the CBD (pdf)

Clearing-House Mechanism

The Convention established a so called "Clearing-House Mechanism" to ensure that all needed information and technologies are available to Parties for the implementation of the Convention. It promotes cooperation in six key areas:

  • tools for decision-making,
  • training and capacity-building,
  • research,
  • funding,
  • technology transfer,
  • and the repatriation of information.


The Clearing-House is coordinated by the Executive Secretary and overseen and guided by an Informal Advisory Committee (IAC). Many Parties designated national CHM Focal Points to assist its functioning.
