The Gothenburg Global Biodiversity Centre (GGBC) is a collaborative hub bringing 20 partner organisations committed to advancing knowledge, strenghening collaboration and driving action for biodiversity.

Rooted in western Sweden and connected worldwide, our mission is to create a vibrant meeting place where researchers, educators, practitioners, public actors, businesses and civil society come together to share expertise co create solutions, and build capacity for positive action for biodiversity.

Guided by science and powered by action-oriented collaboration, we work to strengthen society’s ability to live in harmony with nature - acting locally and thinking globally. Through research, education and partnership, GGBC deepens our understanding of biodiversity and ecosystem services, and inspires meaningful, lasting change.

Our vision is a world where biodiversity is valued, conserved, restored, and used sustainably. Explore how our journey began in our 2018 promotional video — and discover how much we’ve grown since.
