The 2020 Target Cross-linking Tool
A development driven by the BISE – Clearing House
Mechanisms (CHMs) network Europe
TCT - The Target Cross- linking Tool
A solution for multiple target reporting
A stand alone application – free of charge- to be
completely “owned” by user countries
Languages : national and English
Ready with Aichi targets and EU targets already
integrated in English
Present functionalities
Each of the objectives /
sub- objectives of the
National Biodiversity
Strategy can be mapped
with an Aichi Goal, the
most relevant Aichi
target and the relevant
EU target.
Each of the Actions to
be implemented at the
national level can be
mapped in relation to an
objective / subobjectives of the
National Biodiversity
Strategy.
Future development requirements
Prepare and test how to include a new level of
national indicators and allow cross linking them to
national targets
Show and export per EU and Aichi target what was
mapped from national information
Consider facilitation of reporting to CBD and other
Multinational Environmental Agreements
Substantial number of interested countries needed to
justify further investment.
An EIONET- CHM network consultation to be organised
by EEA later in 2014.
