IUCN WCPA Technical Note : Assessing and reporting on the effectiveness element of Target 3 of the Global Biodiversity Framework
The global community has developed a wide array of frameworks, tools, reporting systems, and guidance materials to help protected area and OECM managers assess the effectiveness of their areas and systems. These resources have been developed over time in response to CBD commitments and work has accelerated in light of efforts to achieve Target 3 of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
IUCN WCPA is working with partners (UNEP-WCMC) to bring together results from existing management effectiveness and governance assessment methods and frameworks rather than creating a new methodology. This collaborative effort is examining the most well-known and peer-reviewed management effectiveness assessment methods around the world to create a common reporting language, consistent with IUCN Standards and Categories, and with CBD Decisions.
