| Summary | The Programme of Work on Marine and Coastal Biodiversity of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) calls for a contribution of IOC for its implementation. The present paper reviews the contributions of IOC to the CBD in the light of relevant decisions of the Conference of the Parties to the CBD and the Programme of Work. In the light of the IOC Medium-Term Strategy 2008–2013, the Executive Council is invited to (i) review the present scope of the Commission’s contributions to achieving the objectives of the Convention on Biodiversity, and the cooperation with the Convention Secretariat; (ii) determine the need, if any, for modifications in this respect; and encourage the further liaison of IOC’s scientific, technical and capacity-building activities with relevant normative action under the Convention. |
