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.

Esta guía sobre el Parque Nacional de Alhucemas se centra en la producción de planta forestal en vivero y en los desafíos de repoblación forestal en el bosque mediterráneo y trata también los aspectos relativos al cultivo, procesado de productos derivados y de rendimiento y rentabilidad de los cultivos de plantas aromáticas y medicinales. Esta publicación de carácter técnico también contiene fichas de producción de plantas que constituyen una interesante herramienta de difusión.

This study focuses on livestock production systems in Africa, as African livestock owners are thought to be among the most vulnerable populations on earth. Yet, livestock also has potential to strengthen resilience to climate change, as livestock production systems tend to be more resilient than crop based systems. This scoping study is a welcome addition to the climate change adaptation literature as it addresses a dimension frequently ignored in climate change adaptation studies.

This report describes a rapid assessment of Important Plant Areas in the south and east Mediterranean; a project designed to provide the ‘wild plant perspective’ for the regional investment strategy of the Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund. The project partnership of IUCN, Plantlife International and WWF with botanical teams from Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Tunisia, Syria and Albania, was supported by the French Development Agency.

Peam Krasop Wildlife Sanctuary (PKWS) is one of the most significant coastal wildlife sanctuaries in Cambodia because it maintains a sizeable area of both mangrove forest and evergreen forest, as well as a number of globally threatened species.

This report outlines the advances made by IUCN's Global Business and Biodiversity Programme in working with business to further global conservation goals — from helping develop Holcim’s Biodiversity Management System to bringing the business voice to CBD negotiations. IUCN also scaled up its influence with the private sector through new engagements with Nespresso, Rio Tinto and Tata Steel Thailand.

This report documents the modelled scenarios of local climate variability due to global climatic change, using the projected climate changes to modify the “no change”, 76-year long, monthly sub-catchment rainfall sequences, and average monthly evaporation values that serve as input to the hydrological catchment model that has been configured and calibrated for the Pangani Basin.
