Integrate the value of biodiversity into national/regional plans, and into the national ◎●●●● accounts and reporting system when appropriate. All involved parties should implement plans for sustainable production and ◎● consumption. Reduce the loss of natural habitats including forests at least by half and close to ●●●●●● zero if possible, and noticeably reduce their degradation and fragmentation. Sustainably managed agriculture, aquaculture and forestry. ◎● Reduce pollution to non-harmful levels. ◎ Minimize adverse effects on ecosystems such as coral reefs that are vulnerable to ◎● climate change or acidification of the oceans. 17% of inland areas and 10% of ocean areas are conserved by protected areas, etc. ◎◎◎◎◎◎●●● Prevent the extinction or decline of threatened species. ●●●●● Maintain the diversity of the genes of crops and livestock animals, and minimize ◎ their loss. Provide, restore, and conserve the benefits of nature. ◎● Contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation through the restoration of at ◎● least 15% of degraded ecosystem. Enforce and operate the Nagoya Protocol on ABS. ● The contracting parties develop and implement an effective and participatory ●● national strategy. Respect and mainstream traditional knowledge. ●●● 8 Improve knowledge and science and technology on biodiversity. ◎◎◎●●● ◎：Main Target ●：Relative Target Biodiversity Conservation JICA’s strength  Effective synergy among types of JICA’s cooperation menu (Loan, Grant, Technical cooperation etc.)  Capacity building for counterparts by collaboration with experts and trainings  South-south cooperation for experts and trainings Further challenges  Effective collaboration with other donors / international organizations (bilateral / multilateral organizations)  Review of JICA’s achievement at COPs 13-15, and propose the recommendations after the year of 2020 9
