Introduction 59
Methods 61
Target 1 An online flora of all known plants 64
Target 2 An assessment of the conservation status of all known plants as far as possible, to guide conservation action 68
Target 3 Information, research and associated outputs and methods necessary to implement the strategy developed and shared 72
Target 4 At least 15% of each ecological region or vegetation type secured through effective management and/or restoration 75
Target 5 At least 75% of the most important areas for plant diversity of each ecological region protected with effective management in place for conserving plants and their genetic diversity 79
Target 6 At least 75% of production lands in each sector managed sustainably, consistent with the conservation of plant diversity 83
Target 7 At least 75% of known threatened plant species conserved in situ 89
Target 8 At least 75% of threatened plant species in ex situ collections, preferably in the country of origin,and at least 20% available for recovery and restoration programs 93
Target 9 Enhancing the genetic diversity protection of crops including their wild relatives and other socio-economically valuable plant species, while respecting, preserving and maintaining associated indigenous and local knowledge achieve the target of GSPC 96
Target 10 Effective management plans in place to prevent new biological invasions and to manage important areas for plant diversity that are invaded 100
Target 11 No species of wild flora endangered by international trade 103
Target 12 All wild-harvested plant-based products sourced sustainably 106
Target 13 Indigenous and local knowledge, innovations and practices associated with plant resources,maintained or increased, as appropriate, to support customary use, sustainable livelihoods,local food security and health care 110
Target 14 The importance of plant diversity and the need for its conservation incorporated into communication, education and public awareness programs 115
Target 15 The number of trained people working with appropriate facilities sufficient according to national needs, to achieve the targets of this strategy 118
Target 16 Institutions, networks and partnerships for plant conservation established or strengthened at national, regional and international levels to achieve the targets of this strategy 122
