2. all types are legitimate and important for conservation! …who holds PA management authority and responsibility and is held accountable for decisions about a given protected area? …who holds PA management authority and responsibility and is held accountable for decisions about a given protected area? 4 main governance types identified in preparation for Durban WPC : A. the government (and its agencies) B. various parties (together) C. the owners of the concerned land and natural resources D. the concerned indigenous peoples and local communities

3. Governance type Category (management objective) A. Government Managed Protected Areas B. Co-managed Protected Areas (shared governance) C. Private Protected Areas D. Community Conserved Areas Federal or national ministry or agency in charge Local/ municipal ministry or agency in change Governme nt- delegated manageme nt (e.g. to an NGO) Trans- boundary managemen t Collaborat ive manageme nt (various forms of pluralist influence) Joint management (pluralist management board) Declared and run by individual land- owner …by non- profit organisati ons (e.g. NGOs, universitie s, etc.) …by for profit organisa tions (e.g. corporat e land- owners ) Declared and run by Indigenou s Peoples Declared and run by Local Communities I - Strict Nature Reserve/ Wilderness Area II – National Park (ecosystem protection; protection of cultural values) III – Natural Monument IV – Habitat/ Species Management V – Protected Landscape/ Seascape VI – Managed Resource classification of protected areas by IUCN category and governance type

It examined the merits and problems of the matrix and outlined a way forwards towards the 4° WCC in Barcelona… Our group was very broad (about 15 nationalities…).

6. problems/ questions Possible confusion between ownership and statutory powers, de jure and de facto situations, mixed/ partial protection… Using the categories is already messy, governance adds another layer of complexity Not all governance types may be equally good for a given IUCN category or situation Needs to be incorporated in national legal schemes... delicate moment of recognition Needs to be incorporated in national legal schemes... delicate moment of recognition of existing governance types (new rules to be applied)… risk of getting governments off the hooks? How to inlcude requirement of permanence? How to accommodate for zones of different gov. type?
