CITES Commends Qatar
At its 81st meeting in Geneva, the Standing Committee of the CITES Convention commended Qatar’s efforts to combat wildlife crime and decided to end its participation in the National Ivory Action Plan process, following significant progress. Qatar has implemented 93% of the measures in its national plan. Meanwhile, the amount of illegal ivory seized in other countries in connection with shipments that passed through Qatar fell by more than 99% compared with the eight years before the plan began in 2018. The Ministry of Environment and Climate Change said the achievement was made possible through cooperation among several national entities, adding that Qatar would continue its efforts to protect endangered species through a sustainable institutional framework.
