One of the recommendations emerging from the COP-8 (Decision XIII/8 [6]) promoted a series of regional and/or sub-regional workshops on capacity building for NBSAPs. These will
be held with the aim to discuss national experiences in implementing NBSAPs, the integration of biodiversity concerns into relevant sectors, obstacles, and ways and means
for overcoming these obstacles. It was recommended that these workshops be held (subject to the availability of funding) prior to COP-9, to provide an opportunity to directly support
Parties in their implementation and mainstreaming efforts. The recommendation to hold this series of sub-regional workshops was reinforced by recommendation 2 / 1 of the Working Group on Review of Implementation, at its second meeting which was held from 9 - 13 July 2007.Available onlineCall Number: [EL]Physical Description: 8 Pages
