1 INTRODUCTION The need to address ongoing loss of ecosystems has been recognized through an explicit goal to conserve ecosystems in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD, 2022). This multi-lateral treaty on biodiversity comprises four goals and 23 targets, as well as a monitoring framework consisting of 26 indicators to track progress.

1 INTRODUCTION Despite the substantial effort and investment into the conservation of species and ecosystems, biodiversity loss is accelerating (C. N. Johnson et al., 2017). The list of threatened species keeps growing, with over a million species threatened by extinction, and many species expected to be lost within two decades (Díaz et al., 2019; WWF 2020).

1 INTRODUCTION Coral reefs are one of the most biodiverse and valuable ecosystem types in the world (Adey, 2000; Anthony et al., 2017) but are also among the most threatened (Bellwood et al., 2019; Burke et al., 2011; Halpern et al., 2015; Hoegh-Guldberg et al., 2017) due to climate-driven and local pressures increasing in magnitude and frequency (Anthony et al., 2017; Beyer et al., 2018; Costa et al., 2020).

AbstractCountries have committed to conserving and restoring ecosystems after signing the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). The IUCN Red List of Ecosystems (RLE) will serve as a headline indicator to track progress of countries towards achieving this goal, and to guide action across the GBFs targets.
