A diverse array of strategies is employed globally to conserve biodiversity, but assessments of conservation progress and performance almost universally focus upon national parks and other protected areas.  To advance scientific understanding and inform conservation decision-making, this project will document and describe the use of conservation strategies beyond protected areas.  The project may include both terrestrial and marine systems; geographic focus will depend upon data availability and organizational priorities.  As the foundation for scientific publication, project outputs will include maps, graphs, statistical analyses, and an annotated bibliography.
