Meeting of the Intergovernmental Task Force on Illegal Killing, Taking and Trade of Migratory Birds in the Mediterranean (MIKT) ahead of the CMS Fourteenth Meeting of the Conference of the Parties (CMS COP14), due to take place 23-28 October 2023 in Uzbekistan.

The MIKT mandate comes from CMS Resolution 11.16 (Rev. COP13) The Prevention of Illegal Killing, Taking and Trade of Migratory Birds which encourages the Secretariat to convene the Task Force in order to facilitate international cooperation as well as the implementation of the existing guidelines and action plans.

Additionally, there are Decisions 13.27-13.31 directed to Parties, NGOs, IGOs, the Scientific Council and the Secretariat that define a number of actions related to the work of MIKT.

Ahead of the COP14, MIKT members and observers, will be informed of the relevant Resolutions and Decisions mandating the work of the MIKT, and reflect on whether:

  • The relevant Resolution and Decisions are still fit for purpose
  • If MIKT members and observers need to amend something or propose something new
  • If any Decisions are obsolete

Members and observers will also be informed of the timetable leading up to the COP14, for submitting amendments and suggestions to the Resolution and Decisions. Finally, members and observers, will discuss plans for side events to take place during COP14.

The Secretariat will also inform members and observers of other progress made since the last MIKT meeting in June 2022.
