Among the main outputs of the consultations were critical reviews of biodiversity management mechanisms and an assessment of the progress made in implementation of the Nepal Biodiversity Strategy (2002) and Nepal Biodiversity Strategy' Implementation Plan (2006). These reviews sought to identify major achievements, shortcomings and lessons learned to develop new biodiversity strategies, and action and implementation plans, as well as a framework for biodiversity management at the local level. This implies that the goals and objectives established in NBSAPs should also be reflected in other relevant national strategies, such as NDPs, Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs), National Sustainable Development Strategies (NSDSs) and/or green growth strategies (Figure 2.2).
