Ninety-five percent of the countries that responded to the rapid survey for Africa Asia-Pacific (2017) and Central and West Africa (2018) Symposiums have legislation and/or regulations for preventing, detecting, and penalizing illegal trade in protected wildlife and forest products (United Nations Inter-Agency Task Force on Illicit Trade in Wildlife and Forest Products [Task Force] 2017; Task Force 2018) . Eighty-three percent of these countries use wildlife, game, hunting law and regulations, 70 per cent use specialised laws and regulations relating to the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, 90 per cent use forest law and regulations, 73 per cent use import and export laws and regulation, 63 per cent use biodiversity laws and regulations, 65 per cent use their penal codes, 68 per cent use protected species laws and regulations, 60 per cent use customs laws, and 70 per cent use protected areas laws and regulation. One hundred percent of the legal frameworks of the respondent countries require or enable authorities to involve communities in developing, implementing, and benefiting from policies and laws that ensure sustainable use of natural resources. Seventy percent of these legal frameworks provide financial and/or other support to communities to raise awareness.
Sustainable Development Goal
Source: The Sustainable Development report 2018 (UN 2018c) Tier II; Custodian agency: International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN)
Invasive alien species (e.g. plants, animals, fungi, and microorganisms) are recognised as one of the most serious causes of biodiversity loss and decline, after habitat loss (UN 2018c). This indicator is to be achieved by 2020. Although the Metadata have already been developed, cumulative data for this indicator is not yet available. The data compiling agencies (International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Species Survival Commission and Invasive Species Specialist Group) are in the process of making data available for global, regional, and national use. According to the Sustainable Development Report 2018, the cumulative number of countries reporting to the CBD on national legislation relevant to the prevention or control of invasive alien species has been on a steady increase since 1990, with a 19 percent increase since 2010. However, it is not clear if national legislation has a positive correlation with the national allocation of resources towards the prevention or control of invasive alien species. The report equally states that over 88 per cent of 81 countries surveyed in 2017 have a government department or national agency responsible for managing invasive species; however, over a third of these countries have no allocated budget for this effort and have not accessed any global mechanism to seek funding.
