In 2018, IUCN published the Best Practice Guidelines on Privately Protected Areas, providing broad principle-based guidelines on all aspects of privately protected areas (PPAs), including incentives and protected area networks.
Managers of PPAs have indicated to struggle with effectively managing their protected areas after focusing on the acquisition and establishment phases. This new manual responds to this gap by offering practical guidelines for (aspired) reserve owners, based on lessons learned from PPA managers and other experts.
The manual is currently available in English. The Spanish version is being edited and will be published soon.
Actualmente el manual está disponible en inglés. Estamos editando la versión en español que estará disponible pronto.
The manual is divided in nine pragmatic steps guiding readers from the creation phase to the development of management tools. They provide individuals, non-profit organisations, and civil-society groups interested in managing a reserve as a long-term conservation strategy with useful information on sustainability and fundraising, proposal writing, community engagement and restoration.
We kindly invite you to join the launch event of the manual on Wednesday 18 May, 17 pm CEST. It is an open event that can be joined through this Zoom link. With input from the participants, the following people will speak during the event (in order of appearance):
