IUCN World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA)

Alors que les aires protégées couvrent désormais 20 % des terres de notre planète et 10 % de ses eaux territoriales, de plus en plus d’agences et de communautés sont responsables de la conservation de l’héritage naturel de notre planète, et ainsi de l’héritage culturel qui en découle. La gestion des aires protégées est une tâche de plus en plus exigeante et diverse.

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.

Although focused on aiding managers, these Guidelines are for anyone involved in supporting LSMPAs or the communities that hold an interest in them. It is hoped these Guidelines will also assist new LSMPAs from the earliest design phase, and enhance the management of existing LSMPAs from planning and implementation through ongoing evaluation.

Como nossas cidades continuam crescendo, não devemos abandonar a proteção de áreas naturais às pressões da urbanização, e sim defender esses lugares, e realmente tentar criar novos espaços para a natureza dentro do tecido urbano – inclusive dentro dos centros das cidades. Também precisamos tornar a natureza mais acessível às pessoas, fornecendo interpretação e educação, sempre que possível.

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.
