The document summarizes the role and history of the Netherlands' national clearinghouse mechanism (CHM) website for the Convention on Biological Diversity. It provides access to knowledge, information, and tools for cooperation regarding biodiversity. The website was established in 2008 and transferred to a new platform called Bioland in 2021 to focus on information provision and archiving. Going forward, the CHM will support implementation of the post-2020 global biodiversity framework and potentially strengthen its function as a cooperation tool through additional metadata and international partnerships.
