World Conservation Monitoring Centre
The World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC) is a joint venture between the three partners who
developed the World Conservation Strategy and its successor, Caring for the Earth: YUCN — The World
Conservation Union, UNEP — United Nations Environment Programme, and WWF — World Wide Fund For
Nature (formerly World Wildlife Fund). Its mission is to support conservation and sustainable development
through the provision of information on the world’s biological diversity.
WCMC has developed ag lobal overview database that includes threatened plant and animal species, habitats
of conservation concem, critical sites, protected areas of the world, and the utilisation and trade in wildlife
species and products. Drawing on this database, WCMC provides an information service to the conservation
and development communities, governments and the United Nations agencies, scientific institutions, the business
and commercial sector, and the media. WCMC produces a wide variety of specialist outputs and reports based on
analyses of its data. It is also actively involved in building the capabilities of other institutions, particularly in
developing countries, for promoting and planning their own biological resources.
Le WCMC - Centre mondial de surveillance continue de la conservation de la
nature
Le Centre mondial de surveillance continue de la conservation de la nature (WCMC) est une entreprise
commune des trois partenaires de la Stratégie mondiale de la conservation: 1U nion mondiale pour la nature
(UICN), le Fonds mondial pour la nature (WWF), et le Programme des Nations Unies pour l’environnement
(PNUE). Ce centre a pour mission d’appuyer la conservation et le développement durable en recueillant et en
analysant les données mondiales sur la conservation, afin que les décisions concernant les ressources
biologiques reposent sur les meilleures informations possibles.
Le WCMC a établi une banque de données sur la diversité biologique mondiale, qui comprend des données
sur les espéces animales et végétales menacées, les biotopes préoccupants du point de vue de la conservation,
les sites critiques, les aires protégées, ainsi que l'utilisation et le commerce des espéces et produits de la faune
et de la flore sauvages. S’appuyant sur cette banque de données, le WCMC foumit un service d’information
aux communautés de la conservation et du développement, aux gouvermements, aux institutions des Nations
Unies, aux instituts scientifiques, au monde du commerce et des affaires, et aux médias. LeW CMC publie de
trés nombreux rapports et documents spécialisés, fondés sur l’analyse de ses données.
Centro Mundial de Monitoreo de la Conservacién
El Centro Mundial de Monitoreo de la Conservaci6n (WCMC) es una empresa conjunta entre los tres asociados
que elaboraron la Estrategia Mundial para la Conservacién y su sucesor, Cuidar la Tierra: 1a UICN — Uni6n
Mundial para la Naturaleza —, el PNUMA — Programa de las Naciones Unidas para el Medio Ambiente -, y el
WWE — Fondo Mundial para la Naturaleza (anteriormente Fondo Mundial para la Vida Silvestre). Su misién
es promover la conservacién y el desarrollo sustentable a través del suministro de informaci6n sobre la
diversidad biolégica del mundo.
El WCMC ha creado una base de datos mundial sobre especies amenazadas de animales y plantas, habitat
de interés para la conservaci6n, sitios de importancia critica, reas protegidas del mundo, y sobre la utilizaci6n
y comercio de especies silvestres y productos derivados. Aprovechando los recursos de esta base de datos, el
WCMC proporciona servicios de informaci6n a las comunidades dedicadas a la conservaci6n y al desarrollo,
los gobiernos y organismos pertenecientes a las Naciones Unidas, a las instituciones cientfficas, alos sectores
empresarial y comercial, y alos medios de comunicaci6n. E1 WCMC hace una amplia gama de contribuciones
y publica informes especializados, basados en el andlisis de sus datos. También participa activamente
reforzando de las capacidades de otras instituciones, particularmente en los pafses en vfa de desarrollo, con
miras a la promocién y planificacién de sus propios recursos biolégicos.
