International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) World Parks Congress (WPC) 2014

12-19 November 2014 | Sydney, Australia

.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) World Parks Congress (WPC) 2014, will convene in Sydney, Australia, from 12-19 November 2014. Over 6,000 participants are expected to attend the meeting, representing governments and public agencies, international organizations, the private sector, academic and research institutions, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and community and indigenous organizations. IUCN organizes the Congress once each decade to take stock of the state of protected areas (PAs), appraise progress and setbacks, and define the agenda for PAs for the next decade. The theme of WPC 2014 is “Parks, people, planet: inspiring solutions.”

During the eight days of plenary and workshop sessions, side events and field trips, participants will address ways to: reach conservation goals; respond to climate change; improve health and well-being; support human life; reconcile development challenges; enhance diversity and quality of governance; respect indigenous and traditional knowledge culture; and inspire a new generation. In addition to these, high-level politicians, internationally-recognized experts, CEOs, activists and indigenous leaders will focus on strategic issues related to PAs, conservation and sustainable development in a series of seven moderated public debates termed the World Leaders’ Dialogues.

IISD RS will provide daily web coverage, daily reports (in English, French, and Spanish,) and a summary report of the congress. Kindly return to this site on Wednesday, 12 November 2014, for more information.
