Target 4.1
Target 4.1
By 2029, Parties have access to relevant information and evidence-based guidance to effectively implement the Convention, its Resolutions and Decisions. Explanation: Parties play a key role in providing information at a national scale, but this can also be supported by the CMS Secretariat, through facilitation of the State of the World’s Migratory Species report and other knowledge products, if resources are available. The availability of this information is critical for decision-making and implementation of the CMS, its Resolutions and Decisions and associated guidance.Parties are able to understand and analyse the best available science and information on species, habitats and ranges in a way that enables them to prioritize and collaboratively take effective conservation action.
