CBD has published dates for the major parallel meetings. The densest business and finance overlap is 24–26 October; adding the Action Zone on the 23rd and Gender Forum on the 27th creates a stronger decision-making window.
Blue Zone programmes require a COP17 registration badge. Dates are published by CBD; some final times, rooms, capacity limits and event-specific registration arrangements are still pending.
The official Action Zone Auditorium allocation is in the Blue Zone. It overlaps the organiser-announced first day of TNFD's programme, so split coverage when session times are released.
Nature and Culture Summit, Cities Summit and Science Forum overlap. The GBF Pavilion covers invasive alien species in the morning, water in the afternoon; the previous evening ocean slot is not currently listed and needs final-programme confirmation. This is also the organiser-announced second TNFD day.
CBD's current parent list shows the Business Forum, Science Forum, Nature and Culture Summit field trip and ABS in Action. Its relationship to the earlier Business and Biodiversity Forum / Business Day labels awaits the final programme.
A day to track resource mobilisation across finance, policy and business. Mountain ecosystems occupy the GBF Pavilion all day. Final times, rooms and any event-specific registration remain pending.
Gender Forum takes place, while the GBF Pavilion covers faster NBSAP implementation in the morning and education in the afternoon. If this is your departure day, check the flight conflict before fixing the itinerary.
