Protected Area Network

A Protected Area Network (PAN) is a systematically planned group of natural spaces, such as parks, reserves, and wildlife sanctuaries, that work together to conserve biodiversity and natural resources. These areas are designated to protect ecosystems, plants, and animals from threats like deforestation and pollution. By connecting these spaces through corridors or buffer zones, a PAN ensures species can migrate, reproduce, and survive in a changing environment. This coordinated approach enhances ecological resilience, balances development with conservation, and helps sustain the health of the planet for future generations.
