Within the framework of a cooperative project of UNESCO, Intel and Conservation International to be implemented in 1996 to introduce GIS and computerized technologies in biosphere reserves in developing countries, short term GIS training courses will be organized for biosphere reserve managers.

In 1998 and 1999, UNESCO will organize, within the framework of the Man and the Biosphere (MAB) programme, training courses on remote sensing and GIS technologies for biosphere reserve managers in developing countries, and develop pilot projects on the operational use of GIS.

A task force for biosphere reserve data management will soon be established.

UNESCO, in cooperation with Conservation International, Intel (United States of America) and Nippon Electric Company (NEC) (Japan), has introduced the use of remote sensing and GIS technologies in biosphere reserve management.

Two activities within the MAB programme of UNESCO are of special relevance the International Network of Biosphere Reserve, which focuses on the development of a GT Net, and the Diversitas Programme, concerning biodiversity monitoring.

There is also a separate steering committee for the UNESCO sponsored Man and Biosphere programme.

A task force for biosphere reserve data management is being set up to formulate strategies, tactics and technical protocols for the improvement of biosphere reserve data management, including the use of GIS and remote sensing technologies, and to plan future activities.

Through its Man and the Biosphere programme (MAB), UNESCO is working on the in situ conservation of drylands.

New target regions will be established in UNESCO biosphere reserves in Chile, Peru and the Russian Altai Mountains.
