Audit of the secretariat of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals and co located agreement secretariats

Evaluates administrative arrangements for the secretariat of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals and its co located agreement secretariats.

In conclusion, she invited delegations to attend the Eighth Meeting of the Parties to the Convention on Migratory Species shortly to be held in Nairobi.

UNEP WCMC also provides assessment support to the multilateral environmental agreements, including work on the Global Biodiversity Outlook of the Convention on Biological Diversity, the CITES periodic trade analysisand the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species (CMS) species assessment compilation.

This is one of the last repositories of the Ganges river dolphin, various species of turtles, thousands of migratory birds, and fishing is causing problems like this.

Targeting highly migratory predatory fish species including tuna and swordfish, industrial longlines also catch or kill as many as 4.4 million sea turtles, billfish, sharks, marine mammals and seabirds.

In September 2002, the Conference of Parties to the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals adopted the proposal to list the South American fur seal on appendix II.

Australia will continue to work hard with its neighbours to ensure that this regional fisheries management organization employs world best practice in the sustainable management and the conservation of highly migratory species.

It has urged its member States to become parties to and implement the Agreement for the Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels under the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals.

In addition, a new Agreement on the Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels was adopted under the auspices of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals Convention in June 2001.

102. An audit of the secretariat of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals in Bonn, Germany, found that the secretariat s activities contributed effectively to the achievement of project objectives.

The reporting requirements of the Agreement on the Conservation of African Eurasian Waterbirds (AEWA) established under the Convention on Migratory Species, and of the Helsinki Convention, include specific requirements to report on relevant tourism issues.

However, it had prohibited from 1997 the issuance of new fishing permits for any gear used to catch large pelagic fish (drift net, longline) in order to prevent any increase in fishing effort of highly migratory species, in accordance with the recommendations of international organizations concerned with the preservation of those species.

Concerning the alleged deaths of migratory birds, Iraq argues that it is inappropriate to narrow the losses to two species (plovers and sandpipers) when there are many other types of birds that frequent Saudi Arabia's shoreline areas.

Audits of two other recently established bodies, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Convention of Migratory Species of Wild Animals, showed that these bodies were experiencing difficulties in establishing functioning systems of internal control.

Expressing concern at the reports of continued loss of seabirds, particularly albatrosses, as a result of incidental mortality from longline fishing operations, and the loss of other marine species, including sharks and fin fish species, as a result of incidental mortality, and noting with satisfaction the imminent entry into force of the Agreement for the Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels under the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals,

Multilateral environmental agreements cover many issues that are relevant to, and affected by, tourism, including global issues such as conservation of biodiversity and prevention of climate change, as well as impacts on transboundary resources such as migratory species, and water quality.

Create a Pacific wide network of Marine Protected Areas on the high seas that allow sustainable artisanal and recreational fishing and tourism along known migratory, feeding and nesting habitats of threatened and endangered marine species Support sustainable small scale fishing

Alien species

Statistical studies show that migratory flows are universal.

There's six million species of insects on this planet, six million species.

The Convention on Migratory Species and its associated agreements, and the Marine Mammal Action Plan (MMAP) have developed guidelines on whale watching and aquaria (which deal with marine mammals held in captivity), both of which are important features of tourism in some areas.

The U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service notes that the U.S. West Coast longline, gillnet and other fishing for highly migratory species (such as tuna and swordfish) make up only a small portion of overall fisheries related business in most ports and communities.

3. Alien species

32. He also evaluated and situated various migratory flows.

We've got over 1,000 species. We have 137 bird species as of today.

Ten percent of all plant species on the planet, 24,000 species are safe 30,000 species, if we get the funding, by next year.

And I'm talking specifically about synanthropic species, which are species that have adapted specifically for human ecologies, species like rats and cockroaches and crows.

These are gateway species, vanguard species that open the door for other biological communities.

And these migratory beekeepers are the last nomads of America.

Every species does it.

We're a social species.

That's the same species.

Trafficking in endangered species

species diversity around plant

They are special species.

Our species can make stuff, therefore we prospered in a way that no other species has.

It's also carried on migration patterns of wild migratory aquatic birds.

A unified system of information on migratory processes was nearly completed.
