A. aGlobal strategy on invasive alien species. aCambridge: IUCN: GISPc2001 a50 p. aThe spread of invasive alien species (IAS) is creating complex and far-reaching challenges that threaten both the natural biological riches of the earth adn the well being of its citizens. While the problem is global, the nature and severity of the impacts on society, economic life, health, and natural heritage are distributed unevenly across nations and regions. Thus, some aspects of the problem require solutions tailored to the specific values, needs, and priorities of nations while others call for consolidated action by the larger world community. Preventing the international movement of invasive alien species and coordinating a timely and effective response to invasions will require cooperation and collaboration among governments, economic sectors, non-governmental organisations, and international treaty organisations. This strategy highlights the dimensions of the problem and outlines a framework for mounting a global-scale response. While both the problem and the scale of the solution may appear dauntingly complex, the issue presents an unparalleled opportunity to respond with actions that link preservation of biodiversity with protection of the health and livelihood of the world's human populations. aAlien aBiodiversidade aBiodiversity aEcologia aEcology aEspecie invasora aEstrategia global aGlobal strategy aInvasive alien specie aManagement aManejo aPreservacao aPreservation1 aMOONEY, H.
