The Award Ceremony and Award Winners Forum of the 2026 edition of the Prize will be held on 27 August in Tokyo, Japan.

To date, 21 individuals from 20 countries have received the prize.

Adopted at the 15th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP15) to the CBD in 2022, the KMGBF is the world’s blueprint to halt and reverse biodiversity loss through 23 action targets that must be achieved by 2030.
