Abstract

Protected areas (PAs)—“geographically defined area(s) designated or regulated and managed to achieve specific conservation objectives”—are regarded as one of the most important tools for the conservation of biodiversity. The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) aims at ensuring that, by 2010, at least 10 per cent of the world’s ecological regions are effectively conserved as PAs. That goal has fuelled the growth of PAs in both terrestrial and marine ecosystems, and there is an increasing trend to ‘mainstream’ PAs, as part of a complex social, economic and biophysical matrix.
