The BSAP will build on and reinforce other existing national strategies and plans, such as the National Environmental Action Plan. The project will allow Mali to meet its obligations under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) by assisting the preparation of an Interim Report to the Conference of Parties (COP) of June 1997 and its first Country Report to the COP. |

The Biodiversity Strategy and National Action Plan (BSAP) is expected to be ready by the end of 2000 after a second mission by an international consultant to take place in August 2000 during the 2nd national workshop. |
