Équipe de direction de la CSE

Le CSE est régie par un Comité directeur, avec à sa tête le président de la Commission.

Le Comité directeur représente un équilibre entre les perspectives régionales et thématiques et donne une orientation générale aux travaux de la Commission. La structure de gouvernance de la CSE doit être reconstituée tous les quatre ans, conformément aux Statuts de l’UICN.

Le président de la CSE, en consultation avec le Comité directeur, peut établir divers Comités et Groupes de travail de la CSE. Les présidents de ces Comités ou Groupes de travail sont souvent membres du Comité directeur de la CSE. De plus, le président de la CSE, en consultation avec le Comité directeur, doit nommer les présidents des divers Groupes de spécialistes de la CSE au début de chaque période quadriennale. Les présidents de Groupe de spécialistes sont ensuite mandatés par le président de la CSE pour nommer les membres de leur groupe respectif.

Jon Paul Rodríguez travaille à la conservation des espèces et des écosystèmes vénézuéliens depuis ses études de biologie à l'Université centrale du Venezuela (UCV) à la fin des années quatre-vingt. Avec d'autres étudiants, il a cofondé Provita en 1987, une ONG qui a défendu de nombreux projets fondés sur des données probantes, notamment plusieurs éditions du Livre rouge de la faune vénézuélienne et du Livre rouge des écosystèmes terrestres du Venezuela. Après avoir obtenu son diplôme à l'UCV en 1991, il est allé à l'université de Princeton pour obtenir un doctorat en écologie et en biologie évolutive (1999) et un certificat en science, technologie et politique environnementale à la Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs (2000). Il préside actuellement la Commission de la sauvegarde des espèces de l'UICN, est professeur au Centre d'écologie de l'Institut vénézuélien de recherche scientifique (Instituto Venezolano de Investigaciones Científicas - IVIC) et reste actif au sein de Provita en tant que président de l'organisation.
