Why attend
This event brings together speakers to showcase trilateral cooperation for equitable and effective area-based conservation in Africa. Learn how Zambia and Namibia are applying the IUCN Green List Standard to strengthen governance, rights, equity, management, monitoring and biodiversity outcomes under the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
Session Description
The trilateral cooperation project, supported by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and Federal Development Agency (GIZ), China’s National Forestry and Grassland Administration and IUCN, aims to strengthen the effectiveness and equity of protected and conserved areas in Africa. This session will share progress from Zambia and Namibia, where the IUCN Green List Standard is guiding improvements in protected area governance and management. It will highlight lessons on partnership models that bridge global commitments with national implementation, and demonstrate how international cooperation can deliver measurable biodiversity, climate, and community outcomes. Representatives from governments, partners, and local stakeholders will discuss achievements, challenges, and pathways for scaling up fair and effective area-based conservation across the continent in alignment with the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.Organised by
