Figure 3. A in Summary for policymakers of the global assessment report on biodiversity and ecosystem services - unedited advance version
Figure 3. A substantial proportion of assessed species are threatened with extinction and overall trends are deteriorating, with extinction rates increasing sharply in the past century. (A) Percentage of species threatened with extinction in taxonomic groups that have been assessed comprehensively, or through a 'sampled' approach, or for which selected subsets have been assessed, by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species. Groups are ordered according to the best estimate for the percentage of extant species considered threatened (shown by the vertical blue lines), assuming that data deficient species are as threatened as non-data deficient species. (B) Extinctions since 1500 for vertebrate groups. Rates for Reptiles and Fishes have not been assessed for all species. (C) Red List Index of species survival for taxonomic groups that have been assessed for the IUCN Red List at least twice. A value of 1 is equivalent to all species being categorized as Least Concern; a value of zero is equivalent to all species being classified as Extinct. Data for all panels derive from www.iucnredlist.org (see Chapter 3 Figure 3.4 and Chapter 2 Figure 2.7).
Figure 1 in Summary for policymakers of the global assessment report on biodiversity and ecosystem services - unedited advance version
Figure 1. Global trends in the capacity of nature to sustain contributions to good quality of life from 1970 to the present, which show a decline for 14 of the 18 categories of nature's contributions to people analysed. Data supporting global trends and regional variations come from a systematic review of over 2,000 studies {2.3.5.1}. Indicators were selected on the basis of availability of global data, prior use in assessments and alignment with 18 categories. For many categories of nature's contributions, two indicators are included that show different aspects of nature's capacity to contribute to human well-being within that category. Indicators are defined so that an increase in the indicator is associated with an improvement in nature's contributions.
Figure 8 in Summary for policymakers of the global assessment report on biodiversity and ecosystem services - unedited advance version
Figure 8. Projections of impacts of land use and climate change on biodiversity and nature's material and regulating contributions to people between 2015 and 2050. This figure illustrates three main messages: i) impacts on biodiversity and regulating nature's contributions to people (NCP) are the lowest in the Global Sustainability scenario in nearly all sub-regions, ii) regional differences in impacts are high in the regional competition and economic optimism scenario and iii) material NCP increase the most in the regional competition and economic optimism scenarios, but this comes at the expense of biodiversity and regulating NCP. Projected impacts are based on a subset of the Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) scenarios and greenhouse gas emissions trajectories (RCP) developed in support of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessments. This does not cover scenarios that include transformative change that are discussed in chapter 5.
ASEAN as network governance: an alternative lens to evaluate policymaking and performance
<p><strong><span>Background:</span></strong><span> This article offers a new perspective of ASEAN as network governance (NG) at its core, with a hierarchical organisational structure as its front (hybrid organisation). The works on network forms of organisation and policy network theory (PNT) were used </span><span>for</span><span> the analysis. </span></p> <p><span><strong>Methods</strong>:</span> Two <span>case studies from the ASEAN </span><span>Community</span><span> were selected to show the applicability and effectiveness of NG. </span><span>They were selected for their prominence and the prevalence of critical comments on their ineffectiveness in promoting ASEAN's integration. A study on how these policies are made and implemented in ASEAN was evaluated using a qualitative research methodology by analysing existing literature. </span></p> <p><span><strong>Results</strong>:</span><span> The findings show </span><span>ASEAN </span><span>as a hybrid structure that has helped in two ways critical to </span><span>ASEAN's</span><span> survival and relevance</span><span>.</span><span> First, </span><span>the</span><span> approach provides legitimacy for ASEAN in the international community by purposefully adopting structures similar to the EU without the supranational elements. Second, it highlights ASEAN's goal of asserting </span><span>its </span><span>centrality. While adopting a hybrid structure has led to the soft institutionalisation of ASEAN, characterised by a less empowered secretariat, whose member states are the decision-makers and implementors of policies, adopting NG better reflects the underpinnings allowing a more nuanced assessment of </span><span>its</span><span> performance. In addition, it opens a pathway to recognising the states' autonomy where the extent of actors' will and interests leads to decision</span><span>-</span><span>making and defines ASEAN's performance.</span></p> <p><span><strong>Conclusions</strong>: </span><span>This article demonstrates ASEAN's goal to pursue ASEAN centrality in regional cooperation and institutional arrangements through the alternative approach of NG. NG allows for a nuanced assessment of ASEAN's performance by first highlighting ASEAN's context and history and emphasising the role of member states as decision-makers and implementers of policies. The NG framework has contributed to ASEAN's legitimacy and centrality, fostering regional integration despite its inherent limitations.</span></p>

Focus groups with local stakeholders and policymakers on drivers and policies of territorial inequalities
<p>Focus group data generated in WP2 of the EXIT project. The aim was to analyse local policymakers' and other relevant stakeholders' perceptions of policy drivers and approaches to territorial inequalities. The dataset contains factsheets from 20 focus groups, with 98 participants across seven countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Greece, Italy, Serbia, Spain.</p> <p><span>In terms of participant profiles, 41.84% of participants were institutional stakeholders with a role in addressing territorial inequalities either at the local, regional or national level, that is, representatives from local, regional, and national institutions, such as municipal authorities, government officials, and policymakers. Another main group of stakeholders involved were representatives from civil society organizations (42.86%), with participants from grassroots movements, non-governmental organizations, and community initiatives. A third group, included in some but not all countries, were academic researchers and experts from related fields (15.31%). In a few groups, where deemed relevant to the local context, participants from the private sector were also included to add perspectives on economic development and local challenges. This diversity of participants facilitated a comprehensive and multi-faceted discussion on the complexities of territorial inequalities in rural, urban and post-industrial contexts. </span></p> <p><span>In terms of territorial governance levels, 50% operate at the local level, followed by national (21.43%) and regional (17.35%) levels. A smaller proportion of participants (4.08%) are associated with the EU level in some capacity, in addition to their involvement with institutions at the national or regional level.</span></p>

Figure 2. Examples of global declines in nature, emphasizing declines in biodiversity, that have been and are being caused by direct and indirect drivers of change. The direct drivers (land/sea use change; direct exploitation of organisms; climate change; pollution; and invasive alien species) 5 result from an array of underlying societal causes6. These causes can be demographic (e.g. human population dynamics), sociocultural (e.g. consumption patterns), economic (e.g. trade), technological or relating to institutions, governance, conflicts and epidemics; these are called indirect drivers7, and are underpinned by societal values and behaviors. The colour bands represent the relative global impact of direct drivers on (from top to bottom) terrestrial, freshwater and marine nature as estimated from a global systematic review of studies published since 2005. Land and sea use change and direct exploitation account for more than 50 per cent of the global impact on land, in fresh water and in the sea, but each driver is dominant in certain contexts {2.2.6}. The circles illustrate the magnitude of the negative human impacts on a diverse selection of aspects of nature over a range of different time scales, based on a global synthesis of indicators {2.2.5, 2.2.7}.
