<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Dear all,</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">this call is of utmost importance and
I can only urge all to participate in this survey. All should be
aware that: <br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">- the 2020 Biodiversity targets
largely failed, this year the post-2020 Biodiversity targets
will be negotiated, including the 2030/2050 Sustainable
Development Goals</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">- the post-2020 discussion puts huge
pressure on the discussion to include Digital Sequence
Information (DSI) under the Nagoya Protocol to deliver the
monetary benefits some Developing countries anticipated under
2020 BioDiv-Targets & the NP to materialise.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">- non-monetary benefits (as provided
by us) are categorised as "nice-to-have", but not really
relevant</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">There are two main reasons for this:</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">1. The contracting Parties (both,
NP-Parties and parties of the Biodiversity 2020 Framework)
failed to measure "results" and "contributions". Government
representatives confirmed this three weeks ago in an official
meeting (don't want to give further details here). As a results,
especially the contributions of Biodiversity Research remained
invisible during the last 10 years (besides accelerated research
& increased contributions, e.g. through large scale
barcoding projects worldwide)</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">2. We could have visualised our
contributions (and raised our profile), but failed to do so,
because we were unaware of the political dimensions our research
has on the international political level. <br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">The figures and results of this
questionnaire are highly relevant - to inform the current
political debate, and for us to raise our profile. So please
participate and contribute broadly.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">With best wishes</div>
