          Abstract

          Abstract This paper describes a visualization approach of the existing network available in Brazil to achieve the targets of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC) for 2020 in Brazil. The approach uses the Brazilian National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans and other key documents to identify and map institutions, roles and actions related to each of the GSPC targets. The visualization was generated using the Gephi, an open source software for exploring and manipulating networks. The visualization presented shows some GSPC targets supported by an effective network of institutions, but also GSPC targets that lack of proper support. This visualization approach may be useful to indicates gaps, opportunities for new actions and areas where network linkages may be extended to achieve the GSPC targets more fully in other countries too.

          Resumo Este artigo descreve uma abordagem de visualização da rede existente para atingir as metas da Estratégia Global de Conservação de Plantas (GSPC) para 2020 no Brasil. A abordagem utiliza as Estratégias e Planos de Ação Nacionais de Biodiversidade do Brasil e outros documentos-chave para identificar e mapear instituições, papéis e ações relacionadas a cada uma das metas do GSPC. A visualização foi gerada usando o Gephi, um software de código aberto para explorar e manipular redes. A visualização alcançada mostra algumas metas GSPC suportadas por uma rede eficaz de instituições, mas mostra também metas GSPC com uma falta de suporte adequado. A abordagem de visualização pode ser útil para indicar lacunas, oportunidades para novas ações e áreas nas quais os vínculos de rede podem ser estendidos para atingir plenamente as metas do GSPC em países comprometidos.

            The Global Strategy for Plant Conservation: a challenge and opportunity for the international community.

            In 2002, the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity adopted a Global Strategy for Plant Conservation. This Strategy provided an important new opportunity to focus on the potential loss of tens of thousands of threatened plant species. Here, we briefly describe the development and implementation of the Strategy.
