The Strategy covers seven board overlapping themes: conservation of species; conservation of habitats; research and monitoring ; education; information and awareness; training; and policy and legislation. These themes translate into several action points, notably the development and implementation of action plans for species groups (shorebirds, Anatidae and cranes), networks of sites of importance for species (shorebirds, cranes) reviews of legislation and policy, training and public information, and awareness plans as an attempt to enhance the conservation of migratory waterbirds and their habitats in the Asia-Pacific region until the end of the millenium. This paper summarises the process of international consultation and cooperation in the development and plants for implementation of the Strategy. [Authors' abstract].
This book is the outcome of a major international conference on waterbirds held in Edinburgh in April 2004.
Australia has two bilateral agreements for the conservation of migratory birds, with Japan and China respectively. This paper looks at the comparison between the bilateral approach to conservation and the multilateral approach. It then examines the progress that has been made in pursuing a multilateral approach to the conservation of migratory waterbirds in the Asia-Pacific flyways and looks at how important links between international mechanisms might be developed to promote the conservation of both habitats and migratory species of waterbirds.

The Action Plan for the conservation of Anatidae in the East Asian Flyway was developed by a workshop held at the 1995 North-east Asia and North Pacific Environment Forum on 25-29 September 1995 in Kushiro, Japan, which was attended by specialists on Anatidae from Russia, Mongolia, China North Korea, South Korea and Japan. The Action Plan froms part of the Asia-Pacific Migratory Waterbird Conservation Strategy. The Action Plan Addresses various actions to conserve Anatidae and their habitats, focusing especially on the populations with unfavourable conservation status,identified from the population estimates in the flyway. A committee was proposed to promote the implementation of conservation efforts addressed in the Action Plan. The Workshop recommended each country in the flyway to apply this Action Plan for the conservation of migratory Anatidae and their habitats. [Authors' abstract].
