A network of various institutions, agencies, and sectoral enterprises carry out biodiversity research, monitoring or management. Although mainly governmental, some are
non-governmental, e.g. many of those managing forests
and agricultural land.

Strategic directions:
 

	strengthen the capacity of the institution involved in biodiversity research, monitoring and management, in particular those engaged in in-situ conservation, research and monitoring;
	promote co-operation among institutions to achieve more effective use of existing capacities;
	adopt appropriate regulatory and administrative measures to ensure equal participation in research and monitoring of biodiversity by non- governmental organisations both non-profit and profit making as well;
	strengthen the capacity of biodiversity- oriented non-governmental, non-profit organisations;
	promote education and training of experts available to conduct inventory work, including taxonomists, biosystematics, population and community ecologists and other specialists;
	maintain and enhance the capacity of institutions to scientifically describe, classify and store collected specimens, as well as strengthen their ability to effectively disseminate data and information;
