The Cali Fund, aimed at protecting biodiversity, has raised only $7,085 against a target of $1 billion annually. Major pharmaceutical companies have not contributed financially, despite benefiting from genetic resources. The fund, launched in February 2025, has received minimal support, with only three private sector contributions. Environmental organizations criticize the disparity between pharmaceutical profits and fund contributions. The situation is under discussion at the COP17 summit, highlighting the need for more structured funding mechanisms for biodiversity conservation.
