AGREEMENT ON THE CONSERVATION OF AFRICAN-EURASIAN MIGRATORY WATERBIRDSManagement Guidance Agreement • December 21st, 2022
This mandate from the MOP was included as task 4.2 in the Technical Committee (TC) work plan 2019-2021 and it envisaged to commission simple but comprehensive guidance on the management of disturbance in a form that may be widely translated and disseminated and submit to MOP8 for consideration and initially to be produced in English, French, Arabic and Russian versions. At its 15th meeting in April 2019 the TC agreed that the product should be highly visual and include less text, also as a means to reducing cost of translation. In advance of the 16th meeting of the TC a draft guidance was compiled pro bono by the TC. This draft guidance was approved for submission to MOP8 by the Technical and Standing Committees at their 16th meeting on the 25-29 January 2021 and 16th meeting on 4-6 May 2021, respectively.
