Multiple anthropogenic pressures have been reduced to levels that are not detrimental to the conservation of migratory species or to the functioning, integrity, ecological connectivity and resilience of their habitats.

By 2020, introduce measures to prevent the introduction and significantly reduce the impact of invasive alien species on land and water ecosystems and control or eradicate the priority species

Invasive alien species and pathways of introduction and expansion are identified and prioritized, priority invasive alien species are controlled or eradicated, and management responses are prepared and implemented to prevent their introduction and establishment.

Baseline

• 36% of Parties have established national policies or guidelines on invasive species control and management. (National Reports to COP12).
• 20% of Parties have a national inventory of invasive alien species that currently or potentially impact the ecological character of wetlands. (National Reports to COP12).

Indicator

• % of Parties that have established or reviewed national policies or guidelines on invasive wetland species control and management. (Data source: National Reports).
• % of Parties having a national inventory of invasive alien species that currently or potentially impact the ecological character of wetlands. (Data source: National Reports).

Possible further indicators that may be developed

• {Number of invasive species that are being controlled through management actions}
• {Effectiveness of wetland invasive alien species control programmes}
