  1. Biodiversity Working Group Biodiversity Working Group

  2. Thematic Focus • Mainstreaming biodiversity into production systems in coastal, marine and freshwater ecosystems • Criteria for selection • Representation (coastal/marine, river systems, lakes, high altitude wetlands) • Biodiversity values • Threats from production systems (unsustainable exploitation, pollution, land use change) Cross cutting issues (awareness, baseline info, technical capacity, coordination, ABS, traditional knowledge, community participation, supportive policies)

  3. Priority sites, issues, and partners

  4. Key government partners at state level (planning, development, implementation) • State Forest Departments • Fisheries Departments • Irrigation Depts • Agriculture Depts. • Rural Development Dept. • State Pollution Control Boards • State Aquaculture Authorities • State Biodiversity Boards • State Maritime Boards • State Coastal Zone Regulatory Authorities

  5.
