Transboundary conservation areas
Transboundary conservation areas are protected regions that span across two or more countries, working together to preserve shared ecosystems and wildlife. These areas facilitate international cooperation to maintain biodiversity, sustainable resource use, and ecological health beyond political borders. By coordinating efforts, neighboring nations can better address environmental challenges like poaching, deforestation, and climate change, ensuring the long-term survival of vital species and habitats that naturally extend across borders. Essentially, these areas recognize that nature’s boundaries are often not aligned with human ones, requiring collaborative management for effective conservation.
