2 SSC:ADDRESSING CRITICAL CONSERVATION ISSUES Resolutions and Recommendations from the IUCN WCC Enhancing the usefulness of the IUCN Red List Support for the development and implementation of national and regional red lists (The National Red List Alliance has been established) Further steps to combat the Amphibian crisis Implementing the provisions on invasive alien species of the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity Conservation of tropical Asia s threatened species Biodiversity, protected areas, and Key Biodiversity Areas Development of objective criteria for a Green List (species, ecosystems, PAs)
3 SSC:ADDRESSING CRITICAL CONSERVATION ISSUES Resolution 028- Conservation of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway and its threatened waterbirds with particular reference to the Yellow Sea A national forum on integrated coastal zone planning of the Chinese Yellow Sea (September 2014) June 2015: Government of Korea Financial support for -Road map for the development of a regional action plan -A review of coastal ecosystem service benefits -Capacity development of national partners
4 Recommendation 138: Conservation of rhinoceros species in Africa and Asia The Bandar Lampung Declaration (2013) Bhutan, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Nepal The five Asian Rhino Range States hereby commit to managing the populations of the Greater One- Horned, Javan and Sumatran Rhinos with the intention of achieving at least 3% annual growth rate in their populations, through the implementation of the actions outlined in this Bandar Lampung Declaration
5 IUCN Policy and Guideline Development New revised Guidelines on Ex-Situ Management Guidelines for the Placement of Confiscated Animals IUCN SSC policy statement and guiding principles on the impacts of oil palm expansion on biodiversity Guidelines on Use and Trade of Species Threatened with Extinction (Sustainable Use and Livelihoods SG) Climate Change: Best Practice Guidelines for climate change vulnerability assessment Wildlife Health: Guidelines for the Wildlife Disease Risk Analysis
6 IUCN SSC Interventions China: Poyang Lake, IUCN Motion 64, Recommendation 153 (WCC 2012) (Water control structure, Jianxi Provincial Government) [Premier Li Keiqiang via the Chinese Mission in Geneva] Malaysia: Gua Kanthan Limestone Hill, Perak, Malaysia (only known location in the World-Trapdoor spider- Liphistius kanthan [Malaysian Nature Society, LaFarge, Permanent Mission of Malaysia to the UN (Geneva)] Nepal: Chitwan National Park: East West electric highway and Terai Postal Road. [PM Nepal] Thailand: Three threatened plant species. [PM Thailand]
7 Developing a new way forward for the SSC on illegal wildlife trade and sustainable use Support to CITES, United for Wildlife, Input into meetings Animal and Plant Committee meetings SSC Specialist Groups -MIKE [Monitoring the Illegal Killing of Elephants] Sustainable Use and Livelihoods Specialist Group (promoting both conservation and local livelihoods through enhancing equitable and sustainable use of wild species and their associated ecosystems) Draft Saker Falcon Global Action Plan
8 Situation Analysis related to WCC Rec-139: Bear farming in Asia, (conservation of wild populations) bear farming has significantly increased the availability of bear bile to meet the needs of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) patients.. that evidence of a cause-and-effect relationship (positive, negative or none) between increased supply and use of farmed bear bile and the exploitation of wild bear populations is lacking. scientifically independent, peer-reviewed situation analysis to better understand the relationship (if any) between increased supply and use of farmed bear bile in China and the exploitation of wild bear populations.
9 Expanding the work of the SSC to maximise its impact in reducing biodiversity loss Amphibian Survival Alliance (The world s largest partnership for Amphibian conservation) Five-year strategic plan including a focus on habitat conservation, disease mitigation, captive breeding Significant success fundraising for ASA s activities- especially for field projects

13 Indonesia-SSC Group Initiatives Discussion was held on the SSC s effectiveness in Indonesia SSC meeting in Indonesia 2011 Initiatives to develop National and regional SSC Group 2012 SSC members in Indonesia (around 90) are involved in 28 SG Indonesia bird SG met in November 2014.
14 Focus Group Discussion participants (include28 SSC member from 15 Specialist Group & 3 RLA and 1 ex SG member )
15 Conclusions insufficient networking among Indonesian SSC member Need for more guidance to increase the involvement of members National Action Plan for several targeted species has been developed with the assistance of Indonesian SSC member; however, this is too few. Lack of initiatives an for Indonesian National Red List, due to lack of capacity, so training workshops were held Concerns regarding non-indonesian SSC members and non- Indonesian scientists who conduct research and field work in Indonesia without proper permit and low involvements of local counterparts.
16 Addressing the extinction crisis in Southeast Asia: The Asian Species Action Partnership (ASAP) Initiative Madhu Rao and J.W.Duckworth IUCN/SSC
17 Mammal threat status across the world
18 Asian Species Action Partnership Genesis
19 Business as usual: Many SE Asian species will go extinct Emphasis on site-based fort-holding activities prioritizing species at the highest risk of extinction
20 A Programme coordinated by IUCN SSC on behalf of its member organisations to assist implementing agencies and their partners to- As a matter of urgency, reverse the declines in the wild of Critically Endangered freshwater and terrestrial vertebrates in South-east Asia
21 Many traded animals in SEAsia are amongst the most Critically Endangered on the planet
22 Asian Species Action Partnership defined Objectives: to identify and catalyze urgent actions to reduce immediate threats causing the decline of ASAP species; [site-specific habitat protection, securing critical sites, enhancing high-level political will, capacity building for enforcement, ex situ action] to strengthen ongoing conservation action and promote new initiatives linked to the recovery of ASAP species to serve as a neutral, liaison body to support dialogue among relevant parties (governmental and non-governmental, implementing agencies and donors)
23 ASAP: Current participating organizations Amphibian Survival Alliance Amphibian Ark BirdLife International CatBa Langur Conservation Project Conservation International Cikananga Wildlife Centre European Association for Zoos and Aquaria Fauna & Flora International International Rhino Fund IUCN-Asia Regional Office Katala Foundation Mabuwaya Foundation Noe Conservation Philippine Eagle Foundation Project Anoulak Project Fireface Saola Working Group SAVE- Saving Asia s Vultures from Extinction Save Vietnam's Wildlife Selamatkan Yaki Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Project Synchronicity Earth TRAFFIC Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Wildlife Conservation Society Wildlife Reserves Singapore WWF-Mekong Zoologische Gesellschaft für Artenund Populationsschutz (ZGAP)
24 A strategy to avert the imminent extinction of Southeast Asia s Critically Endangered Vertebrates Identify knowledge gaps and urgent conservation needs for CR species (many are not the focus of any conservation action) Integrate ex situ and in situ actions for those species that require intensive population management and recovery Increase financial support for ASAP species through developing new or redirecting existing sources of funding Raise the profile of ASAP species through targeted communications and political engagement using the IUCN platform Integrate ASAP species into relevant policy priorities (for example, CBD and related National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans, CITES lists, etc.) Develop a standard or branding mechanism as donor guidance for investment in conservation actions/projects directed at ASAP species Naomi Kato
25 Knowledge gaps and conservation needs for CR species Coordinated action for the conservation of White-bellied Heron [Synchronicity Earth, IUCN Species Conservation Planning Sub-Committee, Heron SG] An Action Plan for Giant Softshell Turtle [ASAP, TFTSG] Asian Songbird Crisis Meeting: September 2015 [WRS, TRAFFIC, CCBC] A strategy meeting for the Bali Starling: October 2015 Red List Assessments for Asian Primates: November 2015 [WRS, PrimateSG, Bristol Zoo] Red List Assessments for Sundaic Freshwater Fishes: February 2016 [WRS, NUS, FFSG] 25
