Protected and Conserved Area Effectiveness (GD-PAME)

The Global Database on Protected and Conserved Area Effectiveness (GD-PAME) is the world’s largest repository of management effectiveness assessment data for protected and conserved areas, managed by the UN Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) and updated monthly on the Protected Planet platform. It is compiled in collaboration with a wide range of governmental and non-governmental organizations and sits alongside the World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA) and the World Database on Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (WD-OECM) as part of the Protected Planet suite.
