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].
