Subject: IUCN CBD COP11 POSITION PAPERS
Dear IUCN
COP11 Delegates, dear colleagues,
In the
midst of Congress preparations we have managed to put together 8 IUCN Position
Papers with our views and recommendations to the Parties at COP11 (8-19
October, 2012, Hyderabad, India) on a selection of priority issues in the
agenda. You can find all our position papers (in English) already online
through the following links http://iucn.org/news_homepage/events/cbd/ or http://iucn.org/news_homepage/events/cbd/meetings/hyderabad_2012/ . The Spanish and French
translations of the papers will be online at the end of the week.
Please
distribute them widely through your networks, especially Parties and
stakeholders attending COP, and for those attending Congress, preferably before
flying to Jeju. Like that we have them distributed a bit more of a month in
advance of the COP, which is good timing.
Best wishes
and see you soon,
Sonia
