This book presents the project called "Bug river valley as the ecological corridor : state, threats, protection" that focusses mainly on the preservation and restoration of the biological diversity of the Bug river and its valley as well as on the promotion of the nature values of the Bug river and its valley. The project also aims at starting a long-term international cooperation between Poland, Ukraine and Belarus in order to design and implement a sustainable management plan for the conservation of nature in the Bug river valley. This book is an abridged version of the full report published in Polish. 

   

This book draws on the papers presented and discussions held at two workshops of biodiversity planners from 15 Asian countries. It is, in essence, a snapshot of the NBSAP process in Asia, and although many practitioners may have moved on since this book was compiled, it serves as an important instrument to share experiences. As every NBSAP process is in a different stage of development, it is important to map the journey so that others may follow.

   

In order for National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs) to be implemented, there is a need for financing. This financing hinges on the ability and ingenuity of national governments to design innovative mechanisms to make finances available. The aim of this toolkit is to provide biodiversity planners and decisions makers in Asia with a series of clear and practical methods, options and steps for developing financing strategies for their NBSAPs. It outlines some of the opportunities for raising and allocating more innovative sources of finance for NBSAP implementation.
