Explanation: Parties commit to include migratory species with an unfavourable conservation status in CMS Appendices, based on best available science, and to develop and implement effective cooperative conservation and/or management actions, including CMS Instruments, Concerted Actions and other initiatives that deliver tangible and verifiable conservation outcomes.

Explanation: The conservation status, population trend, range and extinction risk of all migratory species is regularly monitored, including through the State of the World’s Migratory Species report, CMS National Reports,[1] other assessments and analyses of relevant publications such as those produced by CMS and its Instruments, and information from relevant stakeholders, indigenous peoples and local communities. The conclusions of this regular monitoring supports priority-setting under CMS, including the listing of new migratory species that may need specific conservation actions.
 

[1] IUCN Red List assessments are the primary source for assessing the conservation status of migratory species. CMS National Reports and EU N2000 reports etc. could also provide additional information if available..

Explanation: CMS initiatives have helped to improve the conservation status of all CMS-listed migratory species, thereby contributing to the achievement of the Convention and Goals A and B of the GBF. Conservation efforts should strive to engage relevant stakeholders, including indigenous peoples and local communities.

Rational

Plant pests that are invasive alien species can have a significant and devastating impact on the terrestrial, marine and freshwater environments, agriculture and forests. Strategic Objective B addresses environmental concerns related to plant biodiversity and emerging problems associated with plant pests as invasive alien species and the impacts of climate change.

B1: Contracting parties recognize the management of environmental plant pests as part of their responsibilities and work with national environmental sector agencies to support pest management programmes aimed at environmental protection.

B2: Contracting parties have mechanisms in place to control the spread of environmental contaminating pests on non-plant trade pathways (e.g. invasive ants on vehicles and machinery, or gypsy moth egg masses on sea containers and vessels).

B3: Mechanisms are in place to share adaptation strategies for responding to the impacts of climate change.

B4: Agencies with environmental and forest biodiversity stewardship responsibilities regularly access information and other resources managed by the IPPC Secretariat.

B5: Contracting parties continue to improve their capacity to implement key IPPC standards which directly address the spread of forest and environmental pests, such as ISPM 15 on wood packaging materials and other such standards, to contain the global spread of pests which threaten forests, biodiversity and non-cultivated flora.
