IPBES is calling for comments on documents that were the object of a preliminary discussion at the third session of the IPBES Plenary (12-17 January 2015), as requested by Decision IPBES-3/1.

The documents for review relate to ongoing work on the guide for assessments (Deliverable 2a), on diverse conceptualizations of values (Deliverable 3d) and on policy support tools and methodologies (Deliverable 4c).

These documents can be downloaded here.

IPBES secretariat is also encouraging stakeholders to not only review these documents separately, but to also give some thoughts to the need to provide more coherence between them as requested by the Plenary. Interested reviewers need to use the templates for comments prepared for each of these documents to make their comments, and send them back to secretariat@ipbes.net no later than 31 March 2015.
