遷移物種公約特殊保育合作機制之研究－兼論我國參與波昂公約網絡之可行性與意義
Unique Approach for Conservation on Migratory Species under Bonn Convention and Taiwan's Participation
摘要
野生動物遠距離的遷移活動，一直以來都是個神秘莫測令人著迷的現象。由於其「跨境」遷移以及遷移過程中易受威脅之特性，讓保護遷移物種議題浮上檯面，成為國際社會高度關注的焦點，也因此國際社會通過遷移物種公約（波昂公約）來強化遷移物種跨國保育合作。自1983年以來，為求涵蓋遷移過程最大地理範圍以及保護更多遷移物種，在波昂公約框架下已簽訂7個子協定／協議、19個備忘錄，並採行11個跨國行動計畫，構成全球最大的遷移物種保護網絡。本文研究波昂公約所建構之特殊保育合作機制，闡述該機制有效地促進遷移物種跨國保護網絡之開展。我國為全球生物多樣性熱點，在遷移物種保育上深具全球重要性，本文同時探討我國參與波昂公約網絡之可行性與意義。

As protecting migratory species is crucial in the global biodiversity conservation efforts, the Convention on Migratory Species' (”CMS”) approach to protecting migratory species is distinctive among Multilateral Environmental Agreements. Specifically, CMS is unique in its approach for concluding sub-agreements to expand its network on protecting migratory species. This article aims to discuss CMS' unique approach and its influence on the global biodiversity conservation efforts: Part One will discuss the legal mechanisms on protecting migratory species under international law, Part Two will study CMS' unique approach in its conservation effort, Part Three will discuss Taiwan's global significance on conserving migratory species and will describe Taiwan's limited participation under the CMS network, and Part Four will explore possible solutions for Taiwan to further enhance its participation in the CMS network.
