Title | Rationale | Aichi targets |
---|---|---|
TARGET 5: By 2028, the population of migratory bird species identified in selected inland and coastal wetlands along the East Asian–Australasian Flyway (EAAF) will be maintained. | The Philippines is part of East Asian-Australasian Flyway and is an important staging and wintering area for migratory birds in search of food and temporary habitats. Many wetland areas in the country... |
|
Target 6: By 2021, management of biodiversity is mobilized with participation at every level. | With the lack of understanding on biodiversity in various sectors and the obstacle from pre-existing laws and regulations in enabling participation in biodiversity management, Thailand has placed an... |
|
Target 6: By 2025, at least 20% of terrestrial areas and inland waters, and 10% of coastal and marine areas, are conserved through a representative system of protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures. |
The PA network is an indispensable tool to preserve our rich biodiversity and ecosystem services. Thus, the Government has made a commitment to increase the coverage and representativeness of the... |
|
TARGET 6: By 2028, there will be a 5% increase in the proportion of green spaces in the five largest cities. | At present, about 45% of the Philippine population lives in cities. By 2050, the number is expected to increase to about 65%[1]. The PBSAP 2015-2028 acknowledges the importance of ensuring livability... |
|
Target 7: By 2021, incentives that are harmful to biodiversity are eliminated and/or phased out, and positive incentives for the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity are promoted. | Thailand has recognized the cross-sectoral participation in conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity as a driving force in developing mechanisms to eliminate and/or phase out... |
|
Target 7: By 2025, vulnerable ecosystems and habitats, particularly limestone hills, wetlands, coral reefs and seagrass beds, are adequately protected and restored. |
Examples of vulnerable ecosystems in Malaysia include mangrove, coral reefs, seagrass beds, limestone forest, caves, riverine habitats peat swamp and wetlands. These ecosystems harbour valuable... |
|
TARGET 7: By 2028, as a result of improved conservation, ecosystem services provided by key biodiversity areas will be enhanced. | From 2013 to 2014, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) through the Biodiversity Management Bureau (BMB) as the National Technical Focal Point for the Convention on Biological... |
|
Target 8: By 2020, the rate of loss of all natural habitats, including forests and coastal ecosystems, is at least halved. | Continuous change in land use, derived from the expansion of farming areas for mono-cropping and urban sprawl, has adversely affected various kinds of natural habitats including forests, wetlands and... |
|
Target 8: By 2025, important terrestrial and marine ecological corridors have been identified, restored and protected. |
To mitigate the effects of rapid development and urbanization, the government embarked on large scale project to restore ecological connectivity restoration of its landscapes and seascapes. In... |
|
TARGET 8: By 2028, fish stocks of economically important species will be maintained. | Fisher overcapacity has resulted in major overexploitation of Philippine reef fisheries. Demersal fish stocks are biologically and economically overfished in almost all areas other than Eastern Luzon... |
