Abstract

In 2018, the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) adopted a decision on protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs). It contains the definition of an OECM and related scientific and technical advice that has broadened the scope of governance authorities and areas that can be engaged and recognised in global conservation efforts. The voluntary guidance on OECMs and protected areas, also included in the decision, promotes the use of diverse, effective and equitable governance models, the integration of protected areas and OECMs into wider landscapes and seascapes, and mainstreaming of biodiversity conservation across sectors. Taken as a whole, the advice and voluntary guidance provides further clarity about the CBD Parties’ understanding of what constitutes equitable and effective area-based conservation measures within and beyond protected areas and provides standardised criteria with which to measure and report areas’ attributes and performance. This policy perspective suggests that this CBD decision represents further evidence of the evolution from the ‘new paradigm for protected areas’ to a broader ‘conserved areas paradigm’ that embodies good governance, equity and effective conservation outcomes and is inclusive of a diversity of contributions to conservation within and beyond protected areas.

公平有效的区域保护：走向保护区模式

2018年，《生物多样性公约》缔约方通过了一项关于保护区和其他有效的基于区域的保护措施的决定。它包含了OECM的定义以及相关的科学和技术建议，扩大了全球保护工作中可以参与和认可的治理机构和领域的范围。决定中还包括了关于OECM和保护区的自愿指导意见，促进使用多样化、有效和公平的治理模式，将保护区和OECM纳入更广泛的景观和海景，并将生物多样性保护纳入各部门的主流。总的来说，建议和自愿指导进一步明确了《生物多样性公约》缔约方对保护区内外公平有效的区域保护措施的理解，并提供了衡量和报告区域属性和绩效的标准化标准。这一政策观点表明，《生物多样性公约》的这一决定进一步证明了从“保护区新范式”向更广泛的“保护区范式”的演变，该范式体现了善治、公平和有效的保护成果，并包括对保护区内外保护的多样性贡献。

期刊介绍： We aim for PARKS to be a rigorous, challenging publication with high academic credibility and standing. But at the same time the journal is and should remain primarily a resource for people actively involved in establishing and managing protected areas, under any management category or governance type. We aim for the majority of papers accepted to include practical management information. We also work hard to include authors who are involved in management but do not usually find the time to report the results of their research and experience to a wider audience. We welcome submissions from people whose written English is imperfect as long as they have interesting research to report, backed up by firm evidence, and are happy to work with authors to develop papers for the journal. PARKS is published with the aim of strengthening international collaboration in protected area development and management by: • promoting understanding of the values and benefits derived from protected areas to governments, communities, visitors, business etc; • ensuring that protected areas fulfil their primary role in nature conservation while addressing critical issues such as ecologically sustainable development, social justice and climate change adaptation and mitigation; • serving as a leading global forum for the exchange of information on issues relating to protected areas, especially learning from case studies of applied ideas; • publishing articles reporting on recent applied research that is relevant to protected area management; • changing and improving protected area management, policy environment and socio-economic benefits through use of information provided in the journal; and • promoting IUCN’s work on protected areas.
