and
institutional environment;

response
e) managing priority alien
species
Invasions
in pilot sites to ensure

BD Strategic Objective 4: Build Capacity on Access and Benefit Sharing
A: Information
systems and access to
up to date information
B: Capacity building
through exchange of
information and
lessons – regionally
and locally
C: Demonstration of
new approaches for
replication
Outcome 1: Design and
implementation build on
good practice
Outcome 3: Countries
effectively formulate Access
and Benefit Sharing
mechanisms that facilitate
the implementation of the
Bonn Guidelines
Proposed GEF
Project Activities
A: Legal reforms for managing natural forests and the provision of financing
B: Management of habitats that have been modified due to the introduction of
two alien species into the Qinling Mountains to develop improved natural
forest landscapes
A: Design. Builds on OP12 land degradation strategy and the 11 th five year
plan for linking tourism to conservation and sustainable land management
B: Implementation. Horizontal coordination through multi-sector coordination
committee. Support for involvement of WWF /SFB monitoring program within
the Qinling Mountains in the Project Area and endangered species
management plan.
User based monitoring/evaluation linked to the information service. Education
and awareness strategies extended lessons learned throughout the wider
Qinling Mountains.
Technical training through international secondments, research contracts and
habitat monitoring
Demonstration of habitat and endangered species management programs,
landscape planning and integrated tourism and conservation spatial plans.
Workshops and Qinling Mountains symposia to share lessons learned and
work within the Project Area as a field conservation experimental plot.
Development and incorporation of conservation data sets for biodiversity and
habitat management across the Qinling Mountains.
A: Legal and policy reforms.
B: Sustainable financing through revenue transfer from commercial enterprises
for in-situ conservation programs
C: Information sharing was a condition for lending. Wetland management.
D: Ecological and spatial management zones regulated.
