The importance of conservation objectives for marine conservation in Canada's protected areas

Pourquoi assister à cette session?
This session will present the importance of setting sound conservation objectives for effective marine conservation for both marine protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures in Canada.
HideDescription
Conservation objectives for marine protected areas are not always easy to develop due to lack of scientific data. Good objectives are important to inform the design of conservation measures in protected area and to allow for monitoring so achieving objectives can be determined through evaluation. Canada has learned lessons in developing good conservation objectives for MPAs over the years, including consideration of local and indigenous knowledge along with science data. This presentation will go over lessons learned and key features of good conservation objectives in order to allow for effective conservation in marine protected areas.
