The Aichi Passport enables users to explore trends in global biodiversity. Indicator updates are presented for each of the twenty Aichi Biodiversity Targets, adopted by the UN Convention on Biological Diversity. The Aichi Passport is produced by the Biodiversity Indicators Partnership (BIP) and will be updated regularly with the latest global indicators and trends.

Established in 2007, the Biodiversity Indicators Partnership (BIP) is a global initiative established to bring together organizations working at the forefront of indicator development to monitor progress towards international biodiversity targets. In 2010 the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020 was adopted. At the heart of this overarching framework for international biodiversity action are the Aichi Biodiversity Targets which cover a wide range of biodiversity-related topics. Many of these, such as public awareness, economic incentives and policy mainstreaming, were not reflected in previous targets but are key to sustaining biodiversity.
