The IUCN World Commission on Protected Areas Oceania. Newsletter No. 2 2018.

Description:
I have recently returned from the Steering Committee meeting in Lebanon (see summary). It was a very constructive meeting and inspiring to hear of advances being made in many parts of the world. The South Americans seem to be the current stars with major advances for marine and freshwater conservation in Brazil and large new declarations of protected areas in Colombia and a share of their new emissions tax in recognition of the importance of protected areas in holding carbon sinks like forests, peat we tlands, mangroves and seagrasses.
