Jordan’s national targets address several elements of GBF Goal D, particularly those related to strengthening governance, building institutional capacity, establishing information systems, improving transparency, promoting sustainable financing, and expanding knowledge and technology transfer for biodiversity conservation. National targets on integrated and innovative biodiversity financing, regulatory business disclosure, biosafety governance, inclusive decision-making, and enhanced scientific cooperation contribute to improving enabling conditions and mobilizing resources for biodiversity implementation. These targets collectively advance several components of GBF Targets 19 and 20, including capacity-building, technology cooperation, mobilization of public funding, and improved governance mechanisms to support biodiversity financing and implementation.

However, several critical elements of the global targets remain insufficiently addressed. These include the absence of quantitative national financing commitments aligned with the GBF goal of closing the USD 700 billion global biodiversity financing gap; the lack of measurable targets for increasing domestic and private-sector biodiversity investment (Target 19.1); insufficient mechanisms for innovative finance instruments such as biodiversity offsets, green bonds, and payments for ecosystem services; and the absence of a national system for tracking biodiversity finance flows in accordance with Target 20. In addition, national targets do not explicitly address the reform, repurposing, or removal of harmful incentives and subsidies (Target 18), nor do they include clear mechanisms to ensure transparency in resource mobilization across all sectors. These gaps highlight the need for enhanced financial tracking, stronger private-sector engagement, and clearer alignment with GBF Targets 18, 19, and 20 in future planning and monitoring cycles.
