We love seeing the impact of our #BIOPAMA grants!

With #COP16Colombia around the corner, the importance of direct funding for local conservation actors has never been greater.

[IUCN Protected and Conserved Areas @IUCN_PA]

The #30x30 target is about so much more than increasing the coverage of terrestrial ecosystems under conservation.

30% of our #oceans under effective & equitable conservation is a critical element to achieving the target.

Equally valid for MPAs.
