CBD GUIDELINES ON BIODIVERSITY AND TOURISM DEVELOPMENT 2004. International guidelines for activities related to sustainable tourism development in vulnerable terrestrial, marine and coastal ecosystems and habitats of major importance for biological diversity and protected areas, including fragile riparian and mountain ecosystems
CBD GUIDELINES The Ecosystem Approach 2004. The ecosystem approach is based on the application of appropriate scientific methodologies focused on levels of biological organization, which encompass
the essential structure, processes, functions and interactions among organisms and their environment. It also recognizes that humans, with their cultural diversity, are an integral component of many ecosystems.

The assessment is structured in two related parts:
1. State, pressures and threats.
2. Response.
These guidelines detail the process, timeline, and steps taken to complete a State of Environment Report.
The status of species is based on evaluations made by a regional network of experts, who were trained to carry out biodiversity assessments according to the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria.
The paper argues that the mainstreaming of the conservation of the unique terrestrial, freshwater and marine biodiversity of the Pacific Islands, including the traditional knowledge and uses that Pacific Island peoples have for this biodiversity, is by far the most important precondition for ecologically, economically and culturally sustainable development in the small-island states and territories of the Pacific Ocean
