Abstract

The Government of the Republic of Macedonia on its 58th session hold on 13th of March 2018 has adopted the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan for the period 2018-2023. The National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan of the Republic of Macedonia was developed in the framework of the project “Support to the Republic of Macedonia for revision of the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP) and development of the Fifth National Report to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD)“. The Strategy contains six mutually supportive and inter-dependent targets (and 20 actions) that correspond to the Aichi Targets: 1. Full implementation of the EU Acquis on nature conservation, especially the Birds Directive (Directive on the conservation of wild birds, 2009/147/EC) and Habitats Directive (Directive on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora, 92/43/EEC) aiming to preventing further loss of biodiversity; 2. Maintaining and enhancing ecosystems and their services by establishing green infrastructure and restoring at least 15% of degraded ecosystems; 3. Enhancing contribution of the agriculture and forestry to biodiversity conservation and sustainable management; 4. Improved management of fish stock and achieving maximum sustainable yield; 5. Increased control of invasive alien species and their pathways; 6. Intensified contribution of the EU to averting global biodiversity loss.
