Conservation policy What is the aim? In situ conservation is the preservation of species in their natural habitats, in the wild. Ex situ conservation: conservation of biodiversity in facilities constructed by humans. Which species to preserve? Habitat preservation and protected areas Agreements: Convention on Biological Diversity Other relevant international conventions (the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, and the Convention on Migratory Species) The European Biodiversity Conservation Strategy
Convention on Biological Diversity CBD was opened for signing at UNCED in Rio de Janeiro in June 1992. It was signed by 156 countries, and came into force in December 1993, 90 days after the 30th signatory had ratified it. There are now over 180 parties to the CBD -- most of the world’s nations. The USA signed in 1993, but has not yet (October 2005) ratified the CBD. The objectives, stated in Article 1, are: “the conservation of biological diversity, the sustainable use of its components and the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits arising out of the utilization of genetic resources, including by appropriate access to genetic resources and by appropriate transfer of relevant technologies, taking into account all rights over those resources and to technologies, and by appropriate funding.” Precautionary Principle endorsed Main approach: ‘in situ conservation of ecosystems and natural habitats’.
