About the 77th meeting of the CITES Standing Committee

The 77th meeting of the Standing Committee of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES SC77) will take place in Geneva, from 6 to 10 November 2023. The meeting of the CITES Standing Committee will bring together Members of the Committee and other Parties to the Convention as well as observer organizations to review strategic, policy and species-specific matters affecting the implementation of the Convention. SC77 also represents the first meeting after the 19th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to CITES (CoP19), held in Panama in November 2022 and the adoption of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework in December 2022.

With a packed agenda of 77 items, SC77 will consider the alignment with the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, the role of CITES in reducing the risk of future zoonotic disease emergence associated with international wildlife trade, and the establishment of the CITES Youth Global Network. The event will also feature various side events.
