23 Where to next? Work with megadiverse (& other) countries Inclusion of assessments onto IUCN Red List & NRL website Feed global assessments to national processes Harmonisation of Red Listing IUCN Categories & Criteria
24 Where to next? Guidance, training, support National Red List Alliance established in 2013 to promote National Red listing help countries monitor their progress towards biodiversity targets capacity building & advice
