Indicate and briefly describe any actions that have been carried out to implement this Resolution: 
Acci�nDescripciónStatus
Convocar a partes interesadas/creaci�n de redesWe conducted a workshop in June 2018 in London to discuss the process of developing the Situation Analysis on Oil Palm and Biodiversity, and the next steps for the Task Force as indicated by resolution 061.Completed
Influencia pol�tica/promoci�n de pol�ticasWe attended the EU Rountable RSPO in Paris, France and the Roundtable RSPO in Kota Kinabalu to present the findings of the Situation Analysis and other oil palm impact studies. We also arranged a meeting in Gland in July 2018 to discuss next steps for the Oil Palm Task Force.Completed
Actividades t�cnicas/cient�ficasWe are currently translating the Situation Analysis on Oil Palm and Biodiversity into Indonesian and will present this to the Indonesian government in January 2019.On-going
Actividades t�cnicas/cient�ficasWe published and launched the Situation Analysis on Oil Palm and Biodiversity in English and French. Completed
Indique cuáles han sido los resultados/logros obtenidos en el marco de las actividades realizadas: 
The publication of the Situation Analysis on Oil Palm and Biodiversity was accompanied by an IUCN media and communications campaign that focused on a key finding that banning palm oil, as currently considered by the EU, will have unintended and yet unknown negative impacts on biodiversity and the environment elsewhere in the world. This is a key message that now seems to be frequently repeated in communication about oil palm. We conducted a formal impact assessment of the Situation Analysis through the use of pre- and post-publication questionnaires. Analysis is ongoing and data preliminary. There is an indication of the Situation Analysis changing perceptions and knowledge of readers compared to those people who didn't read the report, but effects are small - mostly because the sample size of the group of non-readers is very small.
Indique y describa brevemente las actividades que se realizarán en el futuro para la implementación de esta Resolución: 
Acción FuturaDescripción
Convocar a partes interesadas/creaci�n de redesWe intend to organize a Task Force meeting in 2019 to discuss the two planned studies, develop methodologies and assign responsibilities.
Actividades t�cnicas/cient�ficasWe are seeking financial support for a review study on the socio-economic and cultural impacts of oil palm development, with the goal of conducting an objective review of the topic and publish a report before the IUCN Congress in 2020.
Actividades t�cnicas/cient�ficasWe are seeking financial support for a study on oil palm versus other vegetable oil crops. Where do these other crops grow (spatial analysis and mapping). What environmental impacts do these crops have compared to palm oil? Can these oils replace palm oil from a price and technical production perspective?
