Protected Areas Grades & Audit

Top
The annual Manitoba protected areas grade is based on six World Wildlife Fund criteria, applied to Manitoba protected areas grades since the 1992. Representation of each natural region is based on the landscape types in protected areas, of sufficient size to maintain ecological integrity and sustain ecosystem functions. Manitoba Wildlands now applies the grading criteria annually to Manitoba government protected area commitments and actions. Penalties and bonuses highlight successes or problems. The grade is based on Manitoba data, regulations, and commitments.

Please contact us at webmaster@manitobawildlands.org for further detail on the grade and criteria.
