thumb thumb The (Caribbean Initiative ) is the most recent initiative of the IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature). The Caribbean Initiative focuses on the Insular Caribbean - an ecologically coherent unit with unique biodiversity where conservation and natural resource management issues are at the heart of the challenge of sustainable development. == How was the Caribbean Initiative started? == Members, councillors, commissions and staff of the IUCN assemble every four years at the World Conservation Congress where the 4-year global program for conservation and sustainable development is established and approved. This determines the global program priorities and actions of the Union. During the 2004 Congress, the members of the Union requested the Secretariat to reinforce IUCN's presence in the Caribbean region. In response, the IUCN formulated a proposition for the Caribbean Initiative. The Initiative benefited from extensive consultations and an evaluation of fundamental themes, needs and opportunities in the wider Caribbean,and between members and key partners. The development of the Initiative was completed with the support of the French Ministry of Ecology, Energy and Sustainable Development and the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The 2009-2012 Caribbean Initiative Strategy was developed, supported and recognized by the members and experts at the October 2008 World Conservation Congress held in Barcelona, Spain. This was also the date of the official launch of the Initiative. Through the Caribbean Initiative, the IUCN aims at strengthening its work in the region and establishing a win-win situation for members and countries. The Initiative offers social and political actors the possibility of sharing a coherent program from the local to global levels that encourages joint and participatory actions. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Caribbean Initiative」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
