Applications of Key Biodiversity Areas: End-user consultations
Over the last four decades, a large number of approaches have been developed for identifying places of significance for biodiversity.
These generally focus on one group of species or one biome, or are applied at a very large scale. In consequence, they use a diverse array of assessment criteria and thus produce a variety of different results, which has caused some confusion among decision-makers and risked duplication of efforts. Someone wanting to understand sites of importance in an area will often need to look at multiple, disconnected databases and other information sources.
To address this and to provide a coherent, global approach, IUCN Member organisations requested the IUCN to convene a worldwide consultative process to agree on an overarching methodology to identify Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs).
