National Targets C, E, G and H collectively address complementary aspects of species conservation, genetic resource conservation, traditional knowledge and equitable benefit-sharing. Planned actions include updating protected species lists and national Red Lists, developing and implementing species conservation action plans, assessing gene banks and ex-situ collections, and inventorying indigenous species, varieties and breeds. These are complemented by measures to establish the legal and institutional framework for access and benefit-sharing, protect traditional knowledge associated with genetic resources, and promote traditional practices compatible with biodiversity conservation and sustainable use.

The targets do not explicitly establish measurable objectives for maintaining and restoring genetic diversity within and between populations, or systematic links between ex-situ conservation and species recovery programmes. They also do not expressly address benefit-sharing from digital sequence information or a significant increase in benefits shared by 2030. Although traditional knowledge protection is included, the listed actions do not explicitly specify consent safeguards for accessing such knowledge or practical arrangements for equitable benefit-sharing with its holders.
