Resumen
Descripción
The Global Invasive Species Program
(GISP) is an independent, not-for-profit association whose
mission is to conserve biodiversity and sustain human
livelihoods by minimizing the spread and impact of invasive
alien species (IAS) and which is presently located in the
Centre for Agriculture and Biosciences International (CABI)
in Nairobi, Kenya. Its current membership is limited to the
four founding members of GISP. GISP was supported for three
years (FY04-FY06) by the World Bank through funds made
available through the Development Grant Facility (DGF) and
continues to receive Bank support through the
Bank-Netherlands Partnership Program (BNPP). Although GISP
is a relatively small program, the World Bank's DGF
contribution of US$1.7 million accounted for 72 percent of
the program's financing during this three-year period.
GISP is governed by an Executive Board which at the time of
the Global Program Review (GPR) was composed of seven
persons, including in some cases the most senior ranked
members of the represented member organizations.
