Monitoring Protected Areas in the Tropical Andes
This project will support to convene a consortium of national and international partners to work with the Governments of countries in the Tropical Andes (Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru) to achieve rapid, meaningful, and measurable progress towards national targets and global ambitions for 30x30. UNEP-WCMC will support identification, recognition, and mapping of existing protected and conserved areas as well as target-setting and priority designation for new protected and conserved areas. This project will also monitor progress toward 30x30 goals on a monthly basis and help partner countries become world-leaders for monitoring the effectiveness of national networks of protected and conserved areas.
