As envisaged in the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, particular focus should be placed on protecting and restoring the outermost regions’ ecosystems, given their exceptionally rich biodiversity value. while recognising, valuing and rewarding the ecosystem services that represent a pillar and a condition for the sustainable development of these outermost regions but also a solution to support their resilience to climate change. The biodiversity of the outermost regions should therefore be duly quantified, valued and protected .
