The meeting aims to build momentum for the implementation of the Rome Strategic Plan 2020-2030 endorsed in Rome in 2019 and adopted in December 2019 by Bern Convention parties and 2020 through online communication for MIKT countries. The meeting participants will discuss and endorse a draft work plan for the period 2021-2025 for the implementation of the Rome Strategic Plan and a proposal for a Methodology to assess the scale and scope of IKB in each country.

Background

Illegal killing, taking and trade of migratory birds (IKB) has been a growing concern over the last decades in the Mediterranean region. In response to this threat, in 2014 the 11th Conference of the Parties to CMS adopted CMS Resolution 11.16 (Rev. COP13) to establish the Intergovernmental Task Force on Illegal Killing, Taking and Trade of Migratory Birds in the Mediterranean (MIKT). MIKT members and observers have been actively working towards the eradication of the illegal killing, taking and trade of migratory birds. This will be the 4th meeting of the Task Force (MIKT 4), after a first in Cairo in 2016 (MIKT 1), a second in Malta in 2017 (MIKT 2) and a third in Rome 2019 (MIKT 3). Since 2017 these meetings are held jointly with the Bern Convention Special Focal Points on IKB.

 

The European Union was recognized as Champion Plus for their generous support and commitment towards addressing Illegal Killing, Taking and Trade of Migratory Birds in the Mediterranean for the period 2018 - 2023. This activity has been funded with the contribution granted by the European Commission under the Migratory Species Champion Programme and through the Global Public Goods and Challenges (GPGC Programme) Cooperation Agreements with UNEP.
