Apes: Refocussing Resources

The 2nd Council Meeting of the Great Apes Survival Partnership (GRASP) is convening at UNESCO Headquarters from 6-8 November. Participants are expected to develop a long-term strategy to meet the demands of conserving great apes and their habitat in a rapidly changing world. Discussions will focus on three advanced themes: great apes and green economy; great apes and illegal trade; and great apes and technology. Proposals from the recent GRASP Strategic Review will be considered in order to make the Partnership more effective, while considering reaching out to areas of government, industry, science and research that could increase the scope and scale of work.
