Indicator 15.4.1

Indicator 15.4.1

Average proportion of Mountain Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) covered by protected areas, (%)

This indicator Coverage by protected areas of important sites for mountain biodiversity shows temporal trends in the mean percentage of each important site for mountain biodiversity (i.e., those that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity) that is covered by designated protected areas.

INDICATOR 15.4.1

INDICATOR 15.4.1
Average proportion of Mountain Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) covered by protected areas. This indicator Coverage by protected areas of important sites for mountain biodiversity shows temporal trends in the mean percentage of each important site for mountain biodiversity (i.e., those that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity) that is covered by designated protected areas.
TARGET 15.4
