This study aims to contribute to global and regional gender-climate policy data; enrich regional and national information to better target assistance to countries, their stakeholders and supporters; and inform more robust gender-responsive policymaking, knowledge and action at greater scales.

This think piece presents recommendations of the Science Task Force (STF) of the UN Decade for Ecosystem Restoration, led by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and comprised of leading subject experts as specific actions to be undertaken by public and private stakeholders to sustain and restore the diverse and functioning ecosystems essential for human wellbeing and the preservation of biodiversity.

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.

Recent developments have seen forest landscape restoration (FLR) become widely recognized as an important means of not only restoring ecological integrity at scale but also generating additional local-to-global benefits. This handbook presents the Restoration Opportunities Assessment Methodology (ROAM), which provides a flexible and affordable framework for countries to rapidly identify and analyse FLR potential and locate special areas of opportunity at a national or sub-national level.

In November 2018, Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity adopted at the 14th Conference of the Parties a definition of an "other effective area-based conservation measure" (OECM) as well as guiding principles, common characteristics and criteria for identification of OECMs (CBD/COP/DEC/14/8). OECMs may be managed for many different objectives but they must deliver effective conservation.

Este informe Conflicto y conservación se centra en los conflictos armados y la naturaleza. El tema es muy oportuno, ya que los conflictos armados causan grandes daños económicos y sociales, así como daños ambientales en todo el mundo. Los conflictos han llevado a sociedades a sus límites en términos de recursos financieros y humanos. Se han perdido y perturbado vidas y bienes, se han destruido medios de subsistencia y personas han sido desplazadas.

Ce rapport Conflit et conservation met l’accent sur les conflits armés et la nature. Le sujet est tout à fait opportun, car les conflits armés causent de graves dommages économiques et sociaux, ainsi que des dommages environnementaux, partout dans le monde. Les conflits ont poussé les sociétés à leurs limites en termes de ressources financières et humaines. Des vies et des biens ont été perdus et perturbés, des moyens de subsistance détruits et des personnes déplacées.
