Support to CITES
UNEP-WCMC provides a range of information management services to support the effective implementation of CITES.
These include management of the CITES trade database and CITES species database.
CITES trade database
UNEP-WCMC manages the CITES
trade database on behalf of the CITES
Secretariat. Contracting Parties provide annual reports to the
CITES Secretariat including full details of all export and import
licences issued during the previous year. These data are entered
into the central CITES trade database which is searchable on-line. Analyses are produced
at the request of the Secretariat and others.
UNEP-WCMC also produces regular
outputs of net trade in wild-collected fauna and flora listed
on CITES Appendix II as part of the Review of Significant Trade.
