| Abstract: | Between 15-26 May more than a thousand government delegates and non-government
observers will gather in Nairobi for the Fifth Meeting of the Conference of the Parties
(COP5) to the Convention on Biological Diversity (the CBD). One important agenda
item that will be under discussion is the use of incentive measures to support the
conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. This is not the first time that
incentives, and especially economic incentives, have been identified as a priority tool
for biodiversity conservation. Meetings relating to the implementation of the CBD, at
global, regional and national levels, have called repeatedly for the identification,
development and use of economic incentives for biodiversity, and for the
documentation and sharing of experiences relating to their use. |
