IUCN Green List
Certification of Sango’s ecological management practices
Sango Wildlife Conservancy, as a conservation area, is listed as a potential site under the IUCN Green List Standard, hence recognising it is achieving ongoing results for people and nature in a fair and effective way
Any protected and conserved area that gains ‘Green List’ status demonstrates:
● Respect: for the local community through fair and meaningful engagement of rights-holders and stakeholders.
● Design: planning that identifies the needs to secure the important values of the area.
● Effective management: monitoring of the status of these important values.
● Successful conservation results: for nature and for people.
● Clear contribution: to climate change responses, health and well-being and other challenges.
The IUCN Green List is a global campaign for successful nature conservation, it provides a global benchmark for how to meet the environmental challenges of the 21st century by helping achieve fair and effective nature conservation results in protected and conserved areas. It works toward guaranteeing that wildlife and ecosystems can survive, thrive and bring value to communities everywhere
In order to remain certified, Sango will have to undergo the verification process every five years.
