Describe any challenges encountered in implementing this Resolution and the measures taken
Existing data have been collected and enter into databases. A post-doctoral researcher has been hired for this purpose
Please report on the result /achievement of the actions taken
Significant progress have been achieve in particular through the development of data systems for collection and publication of data linking biodiversity and PA (marine and terrestrial) and linkage to existing initiatives.
The Task Force places a post-doctoral researcher at ZSL for 1 year to gather and direct the input of data to the LPI. This effort increased the number of protected area data sets in wildlife population abundance by over 20%. We understand that UNEP-WCMP is exploring connecting this LPI database to Protected Planet.
This has led to numerous collaborations and increased networking in this field.
