November 7

30 x 30 - What and who counts?         

While there seems to be some agreement on 30x30, it is less clear what that entails from a practical point of view. We will hear from IUCN’s Protected and Conserved Areas Unit and the World Commission on Protected Areas as they clarify what counts and who counts for effective protected and conserved areas.
