Global risks to mangrove ecosystems
   

Despite being among the most productive and valuable natural ecosystems, mangroves face significant human pressures, making it essential to know their status for effective conservation and management. This global assessment of mangrove ecosystems represents a landmark effort to understand the status and trends of mangroves worldwide. It is the first time that all occurrences of a single Ecosystem Functional Group have been assessed. The work has been made possible due to the collaboration of 232 scientists, as well as the increasing availability of spatial data and growing knowledge on mangrove ecology. A global approach is particularly valuable as many of the key ecological functions and services provided by mangroves are transboundary and regional in scope.

Agricultural standards and Nature Positive
    Bhasin, Medha | Curet, Florence

Agricultural standards and associated certification schemes can play a critical role in mainstreaming biodiversity conservation within farming practices. However, the diversity of standards and criteria makes it difficult to understand how effective they are in raising ambition for biodiversity conservation and delivering contributions to the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KMGBF). To address this, 11 voluntary standards relevant to dsm-firmenich’s supply chains – and other buyers of natural ingredients across sectors – were assessed against biodiversity-specific criteria. This assessment aims to guide dsm-firmenich and other companies in understanding which criteria are important to deliver Nature Positive outcomes and how standards align with them. Additionally, the assessment aims to help standard bodies enhance their frameworks in alignment with the Nature Positive goal to halt and reverse nature loss by 2030 and achieve full recovery by 2050.

Set di strumenti per rafforzare il nostro patrimonio 2.0
   

World Heritage properties are internationally recognized as places of Outstanding Universal Value that should benefit from the highest level of management effectiveness. The Toolkit 2.0 offers a self-assessment methodology to evaluate management effectiveness in a World Heritage property or other heritage place. It contains 12 tools that can be used separately or collectively to understand in detail what is working well and what can be done better. The Toolkit supports managers in identifying ways to improve conservation practices, management processes and resource allocation – particularly if used before reviewing or updating management plans. While there is a focus on World Heritage, it can be applied to all heritage places, whether natural, cultural or combinations of both.

Assessing and reducing infectious disease risks in protected and conserved areas
    Hopkins, Skylar R. | Olson, Sarah H. | Colchao, Paulo | Desvars-Larrive, Amélie | Izza Dwiyanti, Evita | Fairbank, Hannah | Lester Finley, Nina | Hayman, David T. S. | Justinek, Ziva | Karryyeva, Shirin | Muylaert, Renata L. | Mitchell, Brent A. | Morand, Serge | Nelson, Alexandria P. | Nova, Nicole | Pontel de Almeida, Anna | Prist, Paula R. | Puspitarani, Gavrila Amadea | Redford, Kent H. | Salkeld, Dan | Walzer, Chris

Protected and conserved areas (PCAs) safeguard biodiversity and provide essential ecosystem services for human and animal health, yet PCAs can also be places where infectious diseases can emerge or spread among people, wildlife, and domestic animals. These dynamics make PCAs both vulnerable to infectious disease threats and critical allies in preventing and mitigating them. Recognising the risks and benefits of PCAs, the conservation, public health, and veterinary health sectors are increasingly working within the One Health framework, an approach which integrates and optimises the health of people, animals, and ecosystems. This peer-to-peer guide helps PCA managers leverage their deep expertise and practical experience to apply One Health in practice, with a focus on infectious disease prevention and management. The toolkit provides adaptable frameworks to assess infectious disease risks (MAP), reduce infectious disease risks (ACT), and assess and build long-term One Health capacity (CREATE). Managers can use the toolkit to systematically identify existing One Health activities and pinpoint where and how One Health capacity could be enhanced in each PCA or PCA system. Grounded in expert consensus and tested with managers in diverse contexts, the guide highlights diverse examples, lessons learned, and current consensus on best practices.
Intégrer le changement de comportement dans la conservation de la biodiversité
    Veríssimo, Diogo | Ribeiro, Edgar | Perry, Laura | Wyman Roth, Noëlle | Ribeiro, Yuri

Le Groupe de Travail sur les Changement de Comportement de la CEC et de la CSE de l'UICN a mené cette évaluation des besoins afin de comprendre les obstacles et les opportunités pour intégrer le changement de comportement dans la conservation de la biodiversité au sein du réseau de l'UICN et audelà, contribuant ainsi aux efforts mondiaux de conservation de la nature.

Protected area network review and design for the State of Palestine
   

A protected area review and design for Palestine was conducted during 2021-2022 with the aim of reviewing and updating the current protected areas using systematic conservation planning principles and The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) protected area design criteria to establish a connected, representative, efficient, and climate-resilient network of protected areas. This was done through a project funded by The Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund (CEPF). The project was implemented by The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in collaboration with the Environment Quality Authority of Palestine (EQA), Palestine Museum of Natural History, Ministry of Agriculture (MoA), Ministry of Local Government (MoLG), Biodiversity and Environmental Research Center (BERC), Nature Palestine, Palestine Wildlife Society (PWLS), and other relevant entities and national experts. An analysis of the current protected area network and design was conducted, which revealed a number of gaps and challenges.
