Protected Area Dashboard

Ce tableau de bord des aires protégées du système d'information de référence BIOPAMA offre un accès aisé à l'information essentielle sur les aires protégées et les systèmes d'aires protégées dans les pays d'Afrique Caraïbes et Pacifique.

La principale source d'information sur les aires protégées est l'observatoire digital des aires protégées (Digital Observatory for Protected Areas - DOPA), un système d'information global géré par le Centre Commun de Recherche de la Commission Européenne, sur base des données de la Base de données mondiale des aires protégées (WDPA), gérée par UNEP-WCMC.

Le tableau de bord supporte le Secrétariat ACP, les observatoires régionaux BIOPAMA, les ministères et agences nationaux, les gestionnaires d'aires protégées et autres acteurs de la conservation (par exemple, bailleurs et ONG).

Management Categories

IUCN protected area management categories classify protected areas according to their management objectives. The categories are recognised by international bodies such as the United Nations and by many national governments as the global standard for defining and recording protected areas and as such are increasingly being incorporated into government legislation. If you want to know more please visit https://www.iucn.org/theme/protected-areas/about/protected-area-categories.

Governance Types

The IUCN Governance Types classify protected areas according to who holds authority, responsibility, and accountability for them. Protected areas exist under the authority of diverse governance actors, including indigenous peoples, local communities, private actors, governments, and combinations of these.

Designations

The Designation attribute of the WDPA is used to report particular designations (i.e. National Park).

Protection level statistics as of Dec 2024
The protected area coverage at the country (GAUL) and region levels is calculated every month using open-source software (QGis) and scripts (Python) following the procedure available at Protected Planet
The code is available at: Github - Protection Analyst

These statistics might differ from those reported officially by countries or by other institutions due to difference in methodologies, software and datasets used to assess protected area coverage and differences in the base maps used to measure terrestrial and marine area of a country or territory.
