Objectif 15: Les bases scientifiques, l’information, la formation, la sensibilisation, la compréhension et les technologies concernant les espèces migratrices, leurs habitats et systèmes migratoires, leurs valeurs, leur fonctionnement, leur état et leurs tendances, ainsi que les conséquences de leur appauvrissement, sont améliorées, largement partagées et transférées, et efficacement appliquées.
An important resource for supporting actions towards this Target is synergistic use of other platforms and occasions for sharing and transferring information and understanding, such as regional meetings of other MEAs or the IPBES process.
