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.

Gouvernance et gestion des aires protégées est une compilation de textes originaux, d'études de cas et d'exemples du monde entier. Il s’appuie sur une vaste littérature et sur les connaissances et l'expérience de nombreux acteurs des aires protégées. Ces derniers y présentent les connaissances actuelles et les idées innovantes des diverses branches de la gouvernance et de la gestion des aires protégées.

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.

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.

Gobernanza y gestión de áreas protegidas presenta un compendio de texto original, estudios de caso y ejemplos de todo el mundo, a partir de la literatura, el conocimiento y la experiencia de las personas involucradas en áreas protegidas. El libro sintetiza el conocimiento actual y el pensamiento de vanguardia de las diversas ramas de la práctica y el aprendizaje relevantes para la gestión y el gobierno de estas zonas.

Protected Landscapes (IUCN Protected Area Category V) are lived-in working landscapes. In the past, there has been a tendency to see them as a rather Eurocentric approach to protected areas but increasingly the category is being designated in other parts of the world, including in a number of developing countries. The Guidelines include sections on the background and on the planning of such areas, and chapters on the principles, policies, process and the means for their management.

Schutzgebiete sind ein wesentlicher Bestandteil jeder globalen Naturschutzstrategie.

As áreas protegidas são um componente essencial de qualquer estratégia de conservação global. O turismo oferece uma maneira crucial e única de promover a conexão dos visitantes com os valores das áreas protegidas, tornando-se uma força potencialmente positiva para a conservação.

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.

As the global coverage of protected areas increases, it is becoming more important to ensure that today's managers have the necessary qualifications and skills to effectively manage protected areas. This publication defines all the possible skills, knowledge and personal qualities required by people working in protected areas around the world.
