* To minimize the negative impact on the economy and Food Security
Abstracts of Poster Presentations at the 12th Meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice of the Convention on Biological Diversity 2–6 July 2007 in Paris, France. Contributions contained in this publication will stimulate awareness about the interlinkages between biodiversity and climate change. These interlinkages run both ways.
This plan provides both an overview of the current risk and vulnerability context in Yap State, as well as the strengths that Yap has, including its strong traditional culture and rich natural resources. It then further provides its developed actions across the 7 Priority Areas, which represent the main elements of their livelihoods they wished to sustain and strengthen in the years to come.
This plan provides Kosrae’s current risk and vulnerability context, including it rich natural resources, and the specific actions identified for its six key sectors, which places Kosrae in good stead for a future that protects its people’s livelihood and environment. With specific actions identified for the 6 Priority Areas, and with pre-identified leading and supporting agencies, this JSAP supplements Kosrae’s Strategic Development Plan (SDP), and is a step towards risk-proofing its future.
This plan provides both an overview of the current risk and vulnerability context in Pohnpei State, as well as the state’s strengths, including its strong traditional culture and rich natural resources. It then further provides its developed actions across the 8 Priority Areas, which represent the main elements of their livelihoods they wished to sustain and strengthen in the years to come.
This plan provides both an overview of the current risk and vulnerability context in Chuuk State, as well as the state’s strengths, including its strong traditional culture and rich natural resources. It then further provides its developed actions across the 6 Priority Areas, which represent the main elements of their livelihoods they wished to sustain and strengthen in the years to come.
This document lists the TIMELINE of major natural disasters that have affected islands in the FSM.
Species have been identified as having a high, medium or low vulnerability to the threat of climate change and have been categorised on the basis of a standardised assessment process. This leaflet summarises the emerging results from an assessment of CMS Appendix I species, in order to provide guidance to policy makers at the earliest opportunity
One of the recommendations emerging from the COP-8 (Decision XIII/8 [6]) promoted a series of regional and/or sub-regional workshops on capacity building for NBSAPs. These will
be held with the aim to discuss national experiences in implementing NBSAPs, the integration of biodiversity concerns into relevant sectors, obstacles, and ways and means
for overcoming these obstacles. It was recommended that these workshops be held (subject to the availability of funding) prior to COP-9, to provide an opportunity to directly support
The report is structured in three parts. Part I provides an update to the status of biodiversity in the FSM, including emerging trends affecting biodiversity and the implications of these trends and changes on human well-being.
