In a paper released in the latest issue of PARKS, The International Journal of Protected Areas and Conservation, 35 conservationists compiled a comprehensive account of how protected and conserved areas around the world are being impacted by COVID-19. Protected and conserved areas such as national parks make up at least 15% of the world’s land surface. These areas provide refuge for plants and animals, biodiverse buffers against climate change, homes for Indigenous Peoples and livelihoods for local communities.
