5. Who will design and implement the project?

6. Laojunshan Project – Yunnan Condor Bioreserve, Ecuador What is the overall vision and scale of the project?

7. Which parts of the Life history or biology to we care about most?

9.

10. What threats are creating problems and what is the estimated seriousness of these threats? Threats Across Systems North Shore Forests & Cliffs Montane Wet Forest South Slope Mesic Forest & Shrubland North Shore Perennial Streams South Shore Fringing Reef Overall Threat Rank Project-specific threats 1 Established Non-Native Ungulates (Pigs, Goats, Axis Deer) High LowHigh 2 New Invasive Plant and Animal Species High Medium-High 3 Established Habitat- Modifying Weeds High -- 4Wildfires-MediumHigh- 5Over Harvesting---LowHighMedium 6 Invasive Alien Marine Species ----HighMedium 7Invasive Alien Algae----HighMedium Threat Status for Targets and Project High MediumHighVery High

11. Who are the key stakeholders with vested interest in the project, what factors are driving critical threats, and what opportunities exist?

12. What specific outcomes are we trying to achieve? By 2008, reduce the mean percent cover of invasive species to less than 5% across over at least 9,000 acres of invaded forest.

13. What actions are needed to achieve the outcomes? ObjectiveUngulates: By 2014, reduce the frequency of ungulate activity to less than 10% in areas with active ungulate control programs. Strategic action Continue to develop and implement a comprehensive ungulate control program through the East Molokai Watershed Partnership. ObjectiveWildfires: By 2009, reduce the amount of burned native ecological systems to zero. Strategic action Work with key fire management partners to develop and implement a landscape fire management strategy and action plan.

14. Percentage of native canopy coverIndicator: Acres and density of specific weedsIndicator: Weeds: By 2014, reduce or contain (as appropriate to specific species) the range and/or density of habitat-modifying weeds within selected management units. Objective: Frequency of ungulate signIndicator: Ungulates: By 2014, reduce the frequency of ungulate activity to less than 10% in areas with active ungulate control programs. Objective: Number of discovered or reported incipient invasive species eradicated Indicator: Number of priority incipient invasive species kept off the island Indicator: New invasives: Prevent the establishment of new invasive plant or animal species on the island. Objective: Objectives and Indicators # East Molokai Strategies Strategy effectiveness measures Are our actions achieving the desired outcomes?

16. What do we specifically need to do, and who will do it? How much will it cost?

18. How should we adapt our actions and share results to achieve impact at broader scales?

20. Speaking of Measuring…

21. Map of What We Have Discussed

22. Prioritize Direct Threats

23. Action Plan: Vision and Goals

24. Action Plan: Strategies

26. Action Plan: Objectives and Activities

27. Monitoring Plan I I I I I I

28. Example Objective

30. Action Plan: Strategies and Results Chains The Basic Components of a Results Chain:

31. So What? This is about Impact –Biodiversity –Partners Its also about Money –Transparency of Thought (Common Language) –Business Plan

32. How Can We Use It? Provide Internal Service –Philanthropy Marketing –Government Relations –Executive Leadership

33. And More…2015 Summarizing the 2015 Goal & Ecoregional Measures –Biodiversity Status –Threat Status –Effective Management Status

34. What is the biodiversity of interest and its status? What threats exist and what’s their importance? Which stakeholders should be engaged, what underlying causes and opportunities warrant attention? What specific outcomes are we trying to achieve? What actions are we taking to achieve the desired outcomes? How do we know if our actions are working? How can we adapt and learn and share results to achieve impact at broader scales?
