KBA criteria for identifying sites contributing significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity 

Key Biodiversity Areas are identified using a set of science-based criteria that are defined in the KBA Global Standard. These 11 KBA criteria have been categorized into five groups: A. Threatened biodiversity; B. Geographically restricted biodiversity; C. Ecological integrity; D. Biological processes; and E. Irreplaceability through quantitative analysis. In this session, these 11 criteria will be presented in summary and the ways in which SSC groups could support KBA identification discussed.

Webinar Lead: Charlotte Boyd, Africa Oceans Fellow, Conservation International
