WCC 2016 Res 031 - Progress Report

There are many results associated with this resolution and it is not possible to list them all here, nor list all of the organisations involved. Enormous progress has been made with implementing the IUCN Green List and now 35 countries are committed partipants and approximately 250 protected areas are involved. The collation of case studies of inspiring solutions has proceeded well, and the knowledge and networking platform, PANORAMA, has grown in membership and depth, with more than 450 published solutions. On Health and Well-being, there has been a strong push towards agreement at the global policy level in both the World Health Assembly and the Convention on Biological Diversity, and continued effort at the level of nature conservation agencies, as well through the WCPA Specialist Group on Health and Well-being. Biodiversity and Business Solutions have been incorporated into PANORAMA and this portal was launched at the CBD COP14 in Egypt. On Protected Area Governance Quality, Diversity and Equity, there continue to be several major streams of work, including at the policy level, but most importantly through work being conducted by several partners around the world on governance assessment at national levels, in at least 28 countries. WCPA and the CEC have forged ahead with #NatureForAll with a significant growth in membership and partnership in this initiative.
