Veuillez indiquer quels ont été les résultats obtenus dans le cadre des activités entreprises pour la mise en œuvre de cette Résolution:
Resulting recommendations of the Net Benefits Initiative Workshop focused on: 1. Nets and netting – provision of white, 40% UV-treated small mesh-size nets and assistance with materials/construction of net frames. 2. Pruning of fruit trees – to a maximum of 4 m (ideally 2 m). 3. Equipment and training – mechanisms for assistance with equipment hire or purchase needed. 4. Model orchards – of two types: a) existing orchards modified to improve production and ease of netting; and b) new orchards planted and managed to provide optimum production, ease of harvest and netting. 5. Development of export markets for tropical fruit – recognizing that to be competitive in overseas markets crops must be ethically sourced. 6. Backyard growers – behavior change (uptake of net use) requires peer-behavior incentive measures (social marketing, development of new social norms). 7. Continued dialogue and collaborative action. The surveys have provided current P. niger population estimates, that proved vital for the Red List Assessment of the species. No cull was implemented in 2017, a possible indicator of success of the collaborative efforts to resolve the conflict on Mauritius
Quelles mesures ont été prises afin de surmonter ces obstacles ?:
Complex motivations behind the culls of P. niger on Mauritius in 2015, 2016, and polarized and entrenched perspectives of general public. Multifaceted approach (bat ecology research, conflict prevention through netting, outreach, advocacy, Red List reassessment) and joint initiative with the Malaysian government are measures taken to overcome challenges.
