Les Lignes directrices abordent la planification et la gestion des aires protégées à gouvernance privée (APP). Ce guide est destiné principalement aux professionnels et décideurs, intéressés ou impliqués dans le domaine des APP. Des lignes directrices sont proposées sur tous les aspects de la création, de la gestion et de l’établissement de rapports concernant les APP.

The development of this second edition of these guidelines was in part a response to evidence of the widespread incorrect application of the categories to marine protected areas (MPAs). Marine management and sustainable fisheries management are critical elements of good oceans management, but are not the same as protected areas management, where the primary focus is conservation of nature.

Estas directrices abordan la planificación y la gestión de áreas bajo protección privada (APP). Las orientaciones están dirigidas principalmente a responsables del diseño de políticas públicas, o bien, profesionales que están o podrían estar vinculados con APPs.

These guidelines address planning and management of privately protected areas (or PPAs) and the guidance is aimed principally at practitioners and policy makers, who are or may be involved with PPAs. Guidance is given on all aspects of PPA establishment, management and reporting, and information is provided on principles and best practices, with examples drawn from many different parts of the world.

Increasing interest in measuring, modelling and valuing ecosystem services (ES), the benefits that ecosystems provide to people, has resulted in the development of an array of ES assessment tools in recent years. Selecting an appropriate tool for measuring and modelling ES can be challenging.

IUCN's Protected Areas Management Categories, which classify protected areas according to their management objectives, are today accepted as the benchmark for defining, recording and classifying protected areas.They are recognized by international bodies such as the United Nations as well as many national governments. As a result, they are increasingly being incorporated into government legislation.

Este volume defende que uma governança apropriada ao contexto e simultaneamente “boa” é essencial para a conservação efetiva e equitativa. Isso se aplica a todos os tipos de áreas protegidas e também a outras áreas conservadas, seja em ambientes terrestres, costeiros, marinhos ou de águas continentais. O foco nas questões relacionadas à governança requer esforço por parte de formuladores de políticas públicas, gestores, titulares de direitos e demais partes interessadas.

The IUCN protected area management categories is a core document for the development, reporting and understanding of protected areas worldwide. In this reprint of the 2008 categories new text on Recognising Protected Areas and Assigning Management Categories and Governance Types, drawing on global best practice and extensive consultation, provides guidance on implementing the categories.
