This unique fund brings together public and private donors for a common goal: better protection of nature in order to safeguard some of the most important areas on earth, including natural World Heritage sites.
The Legacy Landscapes Fund (LLF) aims to address one of the main bottlenecks for the conservation of globally significant protected areas located in the developing world: the lack of a secured funding source to cover basic management and protection costs. Often these protected areas are underfunded by governments and rely on project-based donor funding, which is temporary in nature. The fund intends to fill this gap by providing a minimum of 30 protected areas with long-term and stable resources. Given its focus on the most important protected areas for biodiversity on the planet, natural World Heritage sites can be among its beneficiaries.

The world has missed its target for protecting oceans to save species

Governments have hit a global target for creating protected areas on land, but failed to meet a similar goal on oceans, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) has found.

UNEP found that while only 16.64 per cent of land had been officially reported as protected by 2020, it is clear from other data that the 17 per cent goal was exceeded. However, just 7.74 per cent of oceans were protected, and even several large pending marine protected areas won’t close the gap.
Despite that shortfall, the numbers should be welcomed, says Neville Ash at UNEP. “It’s good news. There has been tremendous progress both on land and at sea in the last decade.”
