This international workshop follows up on a networking and awareness
raising process that had been initiated with a workshop on Vilm
in 2006.
It aims to further elaborate and stress the links between nature
conservation and poverty reduction and to develop mechanisms to
foster conservation with sustainable development among governmental
and non-governmental, conservation and development organisations.
The workshop will also serve to prepare action for the up-coming
Conference of the Parties of the Convention on Biological Diversity. |
