Sao Tome and Principe —
NBSAP 2015-2020 highlights the need to establish marine protected areas (MPAs) and identify and adopt measures for vulnerable species. Planned activities include inter alia: awareness-raising activities on responsible fishing and co-management processes for local communities, and creating and/or strengthening organizational structures (e.g. community associations) involving fishermen, industry, etc.; investigating the potential impact of oil exploitation on fisheries and identifying appropriate measures to take in this regard; developing MPA management plans and MPA support projects (including through ecotourism). The first NBSAP (2005) was successful in establishing 30% of the country’s territory as protected areas, and the designation of the Island of Principe as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. (NBSAP)

Kiribati —
NBSAP 2016-2020 contains 4 national targets mapped to ABT11 which inter alia aim to: expand the marine protected area network and develop and implement at least one or two protected area management plans by 2020; and establish community-based management plans for fisheries and mangroves by 2018. In 2010, Kiribati became the world leader in marine conservation after declaring the Phoenix Islands (408 250 sq km) a marine protected area (PIPA). In 2013, Kiribati exceeded the marine target set out under Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 (12% of territorial waters are protected). In January 2015, the entire PIPA area was officially closed to commercial fishing. (NBSAP)

Armenia —
NBSAP (2016-2020) indicates that the Strategy and State Program of Conservation and Use of Specially Protected Nature Areas (SPNAs) was adopted through a decision of the Government of the Republic of Armenia in 2014. Emphasis is placed on the importance of increasing the level of landscape representativeness, in addition to species that are registered in the Armenian Red Book, in SPNAs. In 2013, the Khosrov Forest State Reserve was awarded with the European Diploma on Protected Areas by the European Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe, representing the first such case in the region. (NBSAP)

Panama —
NBSAP (2018-2050) contains 4 national targets that are mapped to ABT11, among which includes the target to identify and prioritize, by 2020, key biodiversity areas (KBAs) within and outside the protected areas system. Panama’s system of protected areas (SINAP) is comprised of representative samples of 12 life zones and a variety of ecosystems, occupying 31.8% of the country’s land area and 13.5% of its marine area. Considerable attention is being given to developing “green tourism” in protected areas, in accordance with both national and international standards. This initiative is supported by an Action Plan for the 2016-2026 period and being promoted by the Ministry of Environment, the Tourism Authority and the National Institute of Culture, together with civil society, communities and the private sector. (NBSAP)

Ireland —
Several categories of protected areas exist, the most significant of which are the Natura 2000 Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) under the Habitats Directive and the Special Protection Areas (SPAs) under the Birds Directive (there are 430 SACs and 154 SPAs covering 1,949,253 ha, of which 907,754 ha is terrestrial/freshwater). In terms of Natural Heritage Area (NHA), peatland sites are at present the only statutorily designated NHAs and recognized in County Development Plans and other local area development plans. Under Objective 6 of the National Biodiversity Action Plan (2017-2021), actions are planned to inter alia: complete the designation process for SACs and SPAs, particularly for marine coastal and offshore SPAs; implement the National Peatland Strategy; implement the National Raised Bog Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) Management Plan (2017-2022); taking climate change into account, ensure that there are no significant adverse effects from marine fisheries and aquaculture in and adjacent to Natura 2000 sites; increase protected areas connectivity; and extend the MPA network (involving spatial planning). Lead and key partners and performance indicators are defined. (NBSAP)

Benin —
The protected areas system in Benin comprises 58 forests covering 1,292,543 ha or 30% of the nation’s land area. (The National Parks “W” and Pendjari, situated in the northern part of the country, together with buffer zones, cover 777,000 ha or 7% of the nation’s land area). Protected areas represent the only biodiverse areas in the country (outside of protected areas, biodiversity is rare). In 2018, only 1% of the country’s marine biodiversity was protected. Activities are underway to create a marine protection zone for the long-term conservation of species, particularly sea turtles. (6NR)

Vanuatu —
It is stipulated in the Constitution that the land belongs to the indigenous ‘custom owners’. Almost all of the land is under customary tenure. Activities are continuing in relation to National Target 1 which aims to, by 2030, increase the representativeness of terrestrial and coastal and marine ecosystems to support 100% of local communities’ livelihoods and 'kastom' importance, and are mainstreamed with the National Sustainable Development Plan (2016-2030). Two conservation management systems are being used, including community and customary governance or management (‘kastom’), and a government management system, supported by the Department of Environmental Protection and Conservation (DEPC), covered under the Environmental Protection and Conservation (EPC) Act. The DEPC recognizes that resource management through traditional means constitutes the basis for conservation in the country. Under the EPC Act, it is possible for Community Conservation Areas (CCAs) to be registered by communities. CCAs are intended to complement traditional management and provide communities with the option to enforce legal protection over their resources. There are also hundreds of informal conservation areas that exist under customary protection. The DEPC is particularly interested in supporting CCAs of national biodiversity significance. Vanuatu is on track to achieve National Target 2 which aims to, by 2020, have 10 legally registered CCAs with 50% of CCAs effectively supported and managed. Other national targets are also contributing to the achievement of ABT11. (6NR)

Georgia —
Progress has been made in relation to the expansion of the terrestrial and inland waters protected areas network, and the formal establishment of the Emerald Network (the country anticipates reaching the 17% target). However, efforts are required to build the coastal and marine protected areas network (the target of 10% will not be reached.) New conservation approaches, such as contractual nature conservation, have been initiated to enhance the creation of ecological corridors between protected areas. In addition, 31 Important Bird Areas (IBAs), totalling 1,432,960 ha, have been identified and mapped. A significant part of IBAs is currently included in the national protected areas system or Emerald Network (those outside of these areas are considered potential protected areas or Emerald Network sites).

St. Kitts and Nevis —
In 2016, an area including a 2-mile radius around St. Kitts and Nevis was declared as a “Marine Management Area” with the passing of the Fisheries, Aquaculture and Marine Resources Act (FAMRA). Three areas (Sandy Point, Keys and The Narrows) totaling 11,693 ha within this zone have been declared as “Conservation Zones” to protect the coral reefs, seagrass beds, fish stocks and other aquatic life that depend on these areas, including the Spiny lobster and the Queen Conch. In addition, since submission of the 5NR, 2 new terrestrial protected areas have been proposed, one of which, Booby Island Nature Reserve (300 ha), has been legally declared. The Nevis Peak National Park and Camps River Watershed Area (3,250 ha) remains proposed. (6NR)

Germany —
At November 2017, approximately 16.2% of Germany’s terrestrial surface area and 44.9% of its marine surface area (including the EEZ) are protected under the following categories: Natura 2000 network, national parks, core area and buffer zones in biosphere reserves, nature conservation areas and natural monuments. Categories that are not taken into account in these figures are: transition zones in biosphere reserves, landscape conservation areas and nature parks. It is acknowledged that, in addition to expanding the protected areas network, it is important that actions taken toward ABT11 also consider the need to improve the quality of protected areas. Based on criteria agreed by the Federal Government/Länder Working Group on Nature Conservation, Landscape Management and Recreation, actions are regularly taken to ensure the quality level of national park management. In addition, UNESCO biosphere reserves are evaluated every 10 years using the prescribed criteria. The quality of nature parks is audited through a voluntary scheme. (6NR)
