Conseguir y hacer posible que, para 2030, al menos el 30 por ciento de las zonas terrestres, de aguas continentales y costeras y marinas, especialmente las zonas de particular importancia para la biodiversidad y las funciones y los servicios de los ecosistemas, se conserven y gestionen eficazmente mediante sistemas de áreas protegidas ecológicamente representativos, bien conectados y gobernados de forma equitativa, y otras medidas eficaces de conservación basadas en zonas geográficas específicas, el reconocimiento de los territorios indígenas y tradicionales, cuando proceda, integrados en paisajes terrestres, marinos y oceánicos más amplios, velando al mismo tiempo por que todo uso sostenible, cuando proceda en dichas zonas, sea plenamente coherente con los resultados de la conservación, reconociendo y respetando los derechos de los pueblos indígenas y las comunidades locales.

All critical habitats and sites for migratory species are identified and included in area-based conservation measures so as to maintain their quality, integrity, resilience and functioning in accordance with the implementation of Aichi Target 11, supported where necessary by environmentally sensitive land-use planning and landscape management on a wider scale.

Addressing the Drivers of Wetland Loss And Degradation

Effectively Conserving and Managing the Ramsar Site Network

The ecological character of Ramsar sites is maintained or restored, through effective planning and integrated management.

• At COP12, 973 Ramsar Sites have implemented management plans. (National Reports to COP12).
• Number of Ramsar Sites that have effective, implemented management plans. (Data source: new National Report question).
• 27% of Parties have made assessments of effective management of Ramsar sites. (National Reports to COP12).

The Appendices correctly reflect the conservation needs of species.

Parties and the Secretariat cooperate with other relevant international organizations and agreements dealing with natural resources, as appropriate, in order to achieve a coherent and collaborative approach to species which can be endangered by unsustainable trade, including those which are commercially exploited.
