Protected and conserved area effectiveness
Increasing the extent of protected and conserved areas (PCAs), without ensuring these areas are effectively conserving biodiversity, is insufficient to achieve global conservation targets. At the site level, assessing effectiveness is an important part of adaptive management and a wide range of tools have been developed for this purpose. Collating effectiveness data at the global level is important for tracking progress towards Target 3 of the Ku…
Non-State Rangers
Rangers are widely recognised as essential actors in conserving biodiversity, cultural heritage and the rights and well-being of present and future generations. Yet global ranger discourse and policy frameworks have largely focused on state-employed personnel operating within formally designated protected areas. Across Indigenous territories, community conserved areas, other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs), privately protected …
Shifting foundations
Protected and conserved areas are already helping society – and the planet – to both mitigate and adapt to anthropogenic climate change. These important roles were highlighted to governments at the 2015 Paris meeting of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, as they considered the ever increasing set of challenges posed by the rapidly changing climate. But much has changed over the past decade, in ways that both strengthen and undermine t…
Wildlife’s contributions to people
Nature’s Contributions to People (NCP) are increasingly incorporated into conservation policy and highlighted in protected area systems and site-management frameworks. Climate instability is a major driver for use of these ecosystem services. Frequently omitted from this discourse is wildlife’s contributions to people (WCP) which has recently been examined and identified as a driving force in pollination services, seed dispersal, carbon and nutri…
Clarifying ‘long-term’ for protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures (Oecms)
The concept of ‘long-term’ is a key part of the definitions of both protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs). Draft principles for OECMs in Australia developed by the Australian Government propose a minimum period for OECMs of 25 years, where a landholder is not able to commit to in-perpetuity conservation. The proposal suggests this is consistent with IUCN Guidelines for Privately Protected Areas. As authors o…

CA|RDS Lite
This paper introduces the inaugural rapid evaluation of river dolphin habitats, coinciding with managed sites in Asia and South America. Covering all six river dolphin species (including the sole freshwater porpoise worldwide), each is classified as Endangered or Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List. The Conservation Assured | River Dolphin Standards (CA|RDS) offer tailored guidelines for the proficient oversight of protected areas for rive…
Short communication
A new report from the Convention on Biological Diversity details 36 case studies highlighting tangible benefits which contribute to local livelihoods and conservation management costs from individual conservation areas worldwide.The study focuses on direct economic gains linked to biodiversity which do not undermine the area's conservation objectives.One unexpected finding from the research was the lack of standards for reporting the economic ben…
Area-based conservation in the twenty-first century
Humanity will soon define a new era for nature-one that seeks to transform decades of underwhelming responses to the global biodiversity crisis. Area-based conservation efforts, which include both protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures, are likely to extend and diversify. However, persistent shortfalls in ecological representation and management effectiveness diminish the potential role of area-based conservation in …
How effective are Tiger conservation areas at managing their sites against the Conservation Assured | Tiger Standards (CA|TS)
A global pledge to double wild Tiger populations by 2022 has focused attention on the need for effective conservation management. Conservation Assured | Tiger Standards (CA|TS) was established to identify good management standards for Tigers and promote these within Tiger conservation areas (TCAs). The study reported here assessed TCA management against a simplified version of CA|TS to uncover potential shortfalls in management and provide recomm…
Towards a typological framework for area-based conservation
Protected areas and other area-based measures are widely accepted as key elements in biodiversity conservation. However, the diversity and inconsistent usage of terms used to describe these measures have often led to confusion. This has sometimes hampered discussions on their role, including in the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. Here, we seek to provide some clarification of the most widely used terms describing different measures of ar…
Lessons learned from 18 years of implementing the Management Effectiveness Tracking Tool (Mett)
Understanding the successes and failures of management of protected areas is vital for the conservation of global biodiversity. The Management Effectiveness Tracking Tool (METT) is a simple, questionnaire-based approach for assessing protected area management effectiveness (PAME). Since it was developed in 1999, it has become the most widely applied PAME tool, used in at least 127 countries worldwide. This paper reviews the development of the MET…
Priorities for protected area research
A hundred research priorities of critical importance to protected area management were identified by a targeted survey of conservation professionals; half researchers and half practitioners. Respondents were selected to represent a range of disciplines, every continent except Antarctica and roughly equal numbers of men and women. The results analysed thematically and grouped as potential research topics as by both practitioners and researchers. P…
Using a participatory assessment of ecosystem services in the Dinaric Arc of Europe to support protected area management
Partnerships for Protection
Taking into consideration the fact that many ecosystems are under-represented in protected areas of land and water and traditional management methods have often been ineffective, this volume describes how improvements can be made. Specifically, it explores ways of ensuring that all major ecosystems are safeguarded, and innovative approaches to conservation involving individuals, communities, companies and governments. The essence of the approach …
The Intersections of Biological Diversity and Cultural Diversity
There is an emerging recognition that the diversity of life comprises both biological and cultural diversity.In the past, however, it has been common to make divisions between nature and culture, arising partly out of a desire to control nature.The range of interconnections between biological and cultural diversity are reflected in the growing variety of environmental sub-disciplines that have emerged.In this article, we present ideas from a numb…
