Please report on the result /achievement of the actions taken
In 2022, we have completed two technical activities, and have several technical works (peer-reviewed publications) in progress. The next major phase of this work is the development of a task force on long-term conservation that can advance the recommendations from the Resolution and supporting scientific research into practice.
Identify and briefly describe what future actions/activities are planned for the implementation of this Resolution
Future action / activity
Capacity-building
Description
Following a request from the chair of the WCPA, we are developing a Terms of Reference for a new WCPA task force that will focus on long-term conservation.
