Habitats
UNEP-WCMC examines the status and location of many different habitats
to identify their key conservation issues. Our studies provide assessments
of habitat protection, and guidance on prioritising conservation
action from global and national perspectives.
Main programme
areas include forests, freshwater,
marine and mountains
habitats, and a programme of activities focusing on the conservation of
the Arctic and Antarctic habitats.
UNEP-WCMC maintains a large collection of data including spatial
datasets about habitat conservation. Most of our information is
freely available through our web site; for example the statistical
analyses from our forest
CD-ROMs.
