As a party to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity, Germany is committed to protecting biodiversity both within its own borders and worldwide. Thus, in its development cooperation activities, Germany supports its partner countries in achieving their biodiversity goals, for example by supporting protected areas. The German Institute for Development Evaluation (DEval) has evaluated the financial and technical support for protected areas given by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) between 2016 and 2021. This policy brief presents key conclusions and recommendations of the evaluation.
