Following participation in a regional workshop in Nadi in February 2009 to assess progress against PoWPA for Pacific Island countries, information on important marine and estuarine species and habitats was collated during a national planning workshop in June 2009 to develop marine and estuarine conservation targets for the national-scale ecological gap analysis.

The Solomon Islands consists of six major islands, 30 smaller islands and approximately 962 isles, atolls and cays. The islands chain extends over a distance of 1600km with a total area of 28,369km2 and Sea area (EEZ) of 1.34million sq km (National Environment Management Strategy, 1993:6).The islands are highly diverse with rare and endemic species of indigenous flora and fauna.

Lying at the southern end of the Coral Triangle, the Lesser Sunda Ecoregion (LSE) stretches from Bali to Timor Leste, covering an area of more than 45 million hectares. Linking the Indian and Pacific Oceans, the LSE supports diverse and highly productive coral reef and pelagic habitats and is an important transition zone between Pacific and Indian faunas

Assure biodiversity conservation and long-term provision of ecosystem goods and services through a participatively managed and ecologically representative Honduran National Protected Areas System

La importancia social y cultural vital del bioma Amazónico es ampliamente reconocida. Tiene un área de 6,7 millones de Km2, abarca nueve países, con una población aproximada de 44 millones de personas, incluyendo más de 380 grupos indígenas, que dependen de sus recursos.

The project will be developed at national context, covering all the regions comprised by the National Parks System (SPNN), which currently includes 55 protected areas (PA) and 12.554.727 ha (9.04% of the terrestrial area and 1.29% of the marine area of Colombia).

Les aires protégées représentent environ 3 % de la superficie de la Tunisie. En effet, l’objectif majeur de création des parcs nationaux est tout d’abord préserver le patrimoine biologique de la Tunisie dans un but d’assurer la durabilité de ces ressources, de diminuer la perte des éléments de la DB et de s’acquérir d’ un réservoir biologique stratégique.
