Against the backdrop of the ongoing biodiversity crisis, these developments have been motivated by growing evidence that protected areas are not always well managed or reaching the biodiversity most in need of protection (Geldmann <em>et al.,</em> 2019; Watson <em>et al.,</em> 2014). Although Aichi Target 11’s percentage coverage elements are measurable and have incentivised national action (Woodley <em>et al.,</em> 2019; Green <em>et al.,</em> 2019), increases in coverage are necessary but insufficient to conserve global biodiversity.

"In the context of governance, quality is in part linked to diversity (Borrini-Feyerabend <em>et al.,</em> 2013). Although governance diversity has received greater attention in recent years, there is more to be done. Indigenous peoples traditionally own, manage or occupy at least one quarter of the world’s land (including 35% of terrestrial areas with very low human intervention) (IPBES, 2019). However, indigenous peoples and local communities often care for nature while lacking formal rights to lands, waters and resources. Stronger partnerships between indigenous peoples, local communities, governments, conservation NGOs and rights-based NGOs will help to articulate how indigenous peoples and local communities can best be recognised and supported in their conservation efforts, with due consideration for their rights, livelihoods and development aspirations. Such efforts should take into account gender-differentiated roles, responsibilities and needs."

Indigenous peoples traditionally own, manage or occupy at least one quarter of the world’s land (including 35% of terrestrial areas with very low human intervention) (IPBES, 2019), and this figure rises to at least 32% when local communities are considered alongside indigenous peoples (WWF <em>et al.,</em> 2021).

"It has been similarly documented that private actors often lack recognition for their role in conservation (Bingham <em>et al.,</em> 2017), with only 39 countries and territories reporting privately protected areas to the WDPA (UNEP-WCMC & IUCN, 2021c). The achievement of the CBD’s 2050 Vision for Biodiversity will therefore depend partially on recognising and documenting actions that are already ongoing, and supporting those responsible to maintain positive outcomes in the long term. Beyond non-state protected areas, this requires a considerable and collaborative effort to identify, recognise and document OECMs."

Statistics in this chapter were calculated by UNEP-WCMC using the January 2021 release of the WDPA and January 2021 release of the WD-OECM. Three individual layers were used to depict ecoregions: Terrestrial ecoregions, realms and biomes from Olson et al. (2001), minus Antarctic, Rock and Ice and Lake ecoregions. Marine ecoregions, realms and provinces from Spalding et al. (2007); pelagic provinces from Spalding et al. (2012). These three layers were harmonised and merged to form one definitive layer. These layers were chosen for consistency with previous Protected Planet Reports. Protected areas and OECMs were intersected with these ecoregions to determine the scale of overlap between each ecoregion and protected areas and OECMs.\n

This is an intersect of the KBA data with the January 2021 WDPA and WD-OECM – the overlapping areas are calculated and compared to the size of the whole KBA. Sites that are <2% covered by KBAs are considered not covered. Sites >98% covered are fully covered and those in between are considered partially covered.</li>

intro: "Compared to 10 years ago, the world’s network of protected and conserved areas covers a more representative sample of ecoregions. Nevertheless, 55.5% of terrestrial ecoregions do not yet have 17% coverage, and 52.6% of marine ecoregions do not yet have 10% coverage. Among the ocean’s pelagic provinces, largely beyond national jurisdiction, only 10.8% meet the 10% coverage target. The percentage of ecoregions entirely outside protected and conserved areas is now low in the terrestrial realm, at 5.1%, but higher in the marine realm at 15.5%"

"Systems of protected and conserved areas will not deliver global biodiversity outcomes effectively if they do not include sufficient representation of the world’s ecosystems and species, a fact acknowledged through Aichi Target 11’s ‘ecologically representative’ wording. The coverage of ecoregions<sup>1</sup> is generally used to assess this element of Target 11 (Gannon <em>et al.,</em> 2019), and is the metric used in this analysis."

The 365 terrestrial ecoregions with at least 17% coverage by protected areas and OECMs represent fewer than half (44.5%) of all terrestrial ecoregions. Similarly, the 110 marine ecoregions with at least 10% coverage represent only 47.4% of such ecoregions. This drops further to 10.8% in pelagic provinces, which are considerably larger and fall largely outside national jurisdiction.

However, to date the conservation efforts of private actors, indigenous peoples and local communities remain undervalued and under-reported to the WDPA and WD-OECM, though their contributions to conservation are extensive. Notably, areas potentially fitting the description of territories and areas conserved by indigenous peoples and local communities (ICCAs) cover at least 21% of the world’s land (UNEP-WCMC and ICCA Consortium, 2021)"
- "There is a need for greater recognition of the role of non-state actors in conservation, underpinned by (with their consent) improved reporting of non-state protected areas and OECMs to the WDPA and WD-OECM, and therefore availability of information on the extent of their contributions. There is also a need to roll out and refine methodologies like SAGE, establish and maintain a global reporting system for equity assessments of protected and conserved areas, and use the information reported to ensure that the world’s conservation network truly works for people as well as nature."
