ActionDescriptionStatus
FundraisingFunding from the EU was secured for the INSPIRE4Nature project, led by CNRS, involving several IUCN Red List Partners, to train 15 PhD students, some of whom will be working on the Red List Index. IUCN Secretariat secured funding from the Swiss Government to develop functionality on the IUCN Red List website to serve up RLIs and various disaggregations of them to users. The IUCN DG has convened calls with the CEOs of the Red List Partners, and after a decade of existence, join-fundraising efforts are finally underway to secure significant funding for the IUCN Red List, allowing the regular production and update of RLIs based on reassessments.- Aucun -

Veuillez indiquer quels ont été les résultats obtenus dans le cadre des activités entreprises pour la mise en œuvre de cette Résolution: 
A Red List Index for Wild Relatives of domesticated species of birds and mammals was calculated and published in McGowan et al 2018 Conservation Letters 2018: e12588.
The RLI was included in the 2018 SDG report with data for each country updated in the UN SDG indicator database. The RLI and various disaggregations were included in the Third Order Draft of the IPBES Global Assessment, with the indicators extrapolated to 2020 to assess progress towards the Aichi Targets and 2030 for the SDGs, and in each of the IPBES Regional Assessments. • RLIs, disaggregated to national level, were included in the ‘country profiles’ on the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool, and made available to CBD national focal points, among others
Quelles mesures ont été prises afin de surmonter ces obstacles ?: 
The lack of priority and funding for reassessments is hindering progress in updating the RLI, with the 2nd amphibian assessment still apparently years away, and the mammal reassessment delayed again.
Veuillez indiquer et décrire brièvement les activités planifiées par la suite pour la mise en œuvre de cette Résolution: 
Activité FutureDescription
FundraisingContinue to raise funds to support reassessments
Activit�s visant � influencer et/ou promouvoir les politiquesPromote RLI throyugh SDGs and as an indicator for the new post-2020 framework on biodievrsity to be negotiated through the CBD.
Activit�s techniques/scientifiquesContinue to advance methods for production of the RLI. Develop portal on Red List website to serve up RLIs to users.
