The A-Z of Areas of Biodiversity Importance

UNEP-WCMC is pleased to announce the launch of our new website ‘The A-Z of Areas of Biodiversity Importance’ (www.biodiversityA-Z.org).

The A to Z is an online resource to provide clear, concise and relevant information on over 30 important areas for biodiversity conservation ranging from World Heritage Sites to Key Biodiversity Areas.

The guide, the first of its kind, is geared to assist the business community and governments, as well as NGOs, by providing:

• Expert reviewed information for over 30 widely known areas of biodiversity importance
• Comprehensive overview and analysis of the biodiversity and socio-economic characteristics of areas
• User-friendly business relevant section including legal and compliance information
• Links to additional information and spatial tools
• PDF download function
• Information regularly updated
• Multiple search options

The A-Z of areas of biodiversity importance was developed in partnership with ICMM, IPIECA, the European Investment Bank (EIB), the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).
