“…Enhancing the diversity, quality, effectiveness and equity of protected area governance is important for the achievement of Target 11 (CBD, 2018). As there is a lack of comprehensive global assessments of governance and equity in protected areas, reporting on this element has often focused on governance diversity as a means for assessing equity at a protected area system level (Bacon et al, 2019). There are four governance types recognised by the IUCN: governance by governments; governance by private individuals or organisations; governance by indigenous peoples and/or local communities (IPLC); and shared governance (e.g.…”

“…Commitments to further increase protected area coverage have been made by Parties to the Convention Kushiro-shitsugen Na onal Park, Japan © Ministry of the Environment, Japan in their National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs), national priority actions identified through a series of regional capacity-building workshops, 2017 UN Oceans Conference, and various regional initiatives like the Micronesia and Caribbean Challenge Initiatives (Gannon et al, 2017). Many of these protected areas have already been created and reported to the WDPA (Bacon et al, 2019). Achievement of the remaining commitments by 2020 would increase global coverage by over 4 million km 2 terrestrial protected areas and over 11 million km 2 for marine protected areas.…”

In 2010, Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity adopted a Strategic Plan for Biodiversity with 20 Aichi Biodiversity Targets expected to be achieved by 2020. Target 11 sets out goals for protected and conserved areas in terrestrial, marine and freshwater ecosystems. This paper, prepared on behalf of the Global Partnership on Aichi Target 11, reports on progress to date in meeting the quantitative and qualitative elements of Target 11 and identifies opportunities for further progress prior to the 15th Conference of the Parties in Kunming in 2020 and beyond.

“…This perspective focuses on implementing the current elements of Aichi Target 11 for a further 10 years to ensure all its qualitative elements, not just the percentage of coverage targets, are achieved by 2030. Although there is evidence that percent targets increased national conservation efforts (Bacon et al 2019;Díaz et al 2019;Green et al 2019), it is widely agreed that better links are needed between quantitative and qualitative targets, including measures of conservation outcomes. This requires looking beyond percent targets and conventional PAs and focusing on ecological representation, well-connected, and other area-based measures for biodiversity, including under the governance of indigenous peoples and local communities, and ecosystem services (Butchart et al 2015;Chauvenet & Barnes 2016;Lewis et al 2017).…”

During 2021, Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) are expected to meet in Kunming, China, to agree on a new global biodiversity framework aimed at halting and reversing biodiversity loss, encouraging the sustainable use of biodiversity, and ensuring the equitable sharing of its benefits. As the post-2020 global biodiversity framework evolves, parties to the convention are being exposed to a range of perspectives on the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity, relating to the future framework as a whole or to aspects of it. Area-based conservation measures are one such aspect, and there are diverse perspectives on how new targets might be framed in relation to these measures. These perspectives represent different outlooks on the relationship between human and nonhuman life on Earth. However, in most cases there is a lack of clarity on how they would be implemented in practice, the implications this would have for biodiversity and human wellbeing, and how they would contribute to achieving the 2050 Vision for Biodiversity of "living in harmony with nature." We sought to clarify these issues by summarizing some of these perspectives in relation to the future of area-based biodiversity conservation. We identified these perspectives through a review of the literature and expert consultation workshops and compiled them into 4 main groups: Aichi+, ambitious area-based conservation perspectives, new conservation, and whole-earth conservation. We found that although the perspectives Aichi+ and whole earth are in some cases at odds with one another, they also have commonalities, and all perspectives have elements that can contribute to developing and implementing the post-2020 global biodiversity framework and achieving the longer term CBD 2050 Vision.

“…However, there is strong evidence that percentage targets materially increase national conservation efforts. Target 11 is being seen as one of the most successful targets reached (Green et al, 2019) including in mega-diverse countries (Bacon et al, 2019). Area targets alone are insufficient to halt biodiversity loss, and must be accompanied by a focus on quality, notably the equitable governance and effective management of systems of protected and conserved areas.…”

IUCN defines a protected area as: A clearly defined geographical space, recognised, dedicated and managed, through legal or other effec ve means, to achieve the long-term conserva on of nature with associated ecosystem services and cultural values. The defini on is expanded by six management categories (one with a subdivision), summarized below. Ia Strict nature reserve: Strictly protected for biodiversity and also possibly geological/ geomorphological features, where human visitation, use and impacts are controlled and limited to ensure protection of the conservation values. Ib Wilderness area: Usually large unmodified or slightly modified areas, retaining their natural character and influence, without permanent or significant human habitation, protected and managed to preserve their natural condition. II National park: Large natural or near-natural areas protecting large-scale ecological processes with characteristic species and ecosystems, which also have environmentally and culturally compatible spiritual, scientific, educational, recreational and visitor opportunities. III Natural monument or feature: Areas set aside to protect a specific natural monument, which can be a landform, sea mount, marine cavern, geological feature such as a cave, or a living feature such as an ancient grove. IV Habitat/species management area: Areas to protect particular species or habitats, where management reflects this priority. Many will need regular, active interventions to meet the needs of particular species or habitats, but this is not a requirement of the category. V Protected landscape or seascape: Where the interaction of people and nature over time has produced a distinct character with significant ecological, biological, cultural and scenic value: and where safeguarding the integrity of this interaction is vital to protecting and sustaining the area and its associated nature conservation and other values. VI Protected areas with sustainable use of natural resources: Areas which conserve ecosystems, together with associated cultural values and traditional natural resource management systems. Generally large, mainly in a natural condition, with a proportion under sustainable natural resource management and where low-level nonindustrial natural resource use compatible with nature conservation is seen as one of the main aims.
