WB / WWF Alliance Targets Alliance Forest Protected Areas targets by 2005: • 50 million ha of new forest protected areas • 50 million ha of protected areas secured under effective management Current situation: • over 30 million ha of new protected areas • working in over 40 million ha for improved management WORLD BANK / WWF ALLIANCE FOR FOREST CONSERVATION AND SUSTAINABLE USE

  4. A Site-Level Management EffectivenessTracking Tool Tool to collect data on WB / WWF Forest PA portfolio • Portfolio-wide • Quick, focused on sites • Relies on knowledge of WB / WWF staff and PA managers Limitations • Small amount of quantifiable data • Should be backed up by more detailed assessment system • scoring system should not be used for comparison between sites • limited evaluation of outcomes WORLD BANK / WWF ALLIANCE FOR FOREST CONSERVATION AND SUSTAINABLE USE

  5. Aims of Tracking Tool • Identifies progress on management effectiveness of WWF and World Bank PA Projects • Provides baseline data on Alliance PA portfolio • Identifies global trends and priorities for the development of tools and policies • Identifies key management issues in PA management and how to resolve issues • Assists reporting and accountability • Identify appropriate follow-up steps WORLD BANK / WWF ALLIANCE FOR FOREST CONSERVATION AND SUSTAINABLE USE
