How can we use spatial data to identify critical areas where nature-based actions can address national biodiversity, climate and sustainable development priorities? In this second international virtual consultation, policy makers and spatial data experts from Cambodia will work with an international team to explore the science behind mapping Essential Life Support Areas (ELSAs) mapping and co-create the final ELSA map for the country

Additional training on Systematic Conservation Planning

We are excited to share a customized technical training on Systematic Conservation Planning (SCP) for South Africa. This optional additional training aims to provide an introduction to SCP, and explain clearly how SCP is used as part of the ELSA analysis . No previous experience in SCP is needed.

The training is developed by UNDP and PacMARA (Pacific Marine Analysis and Research Association). PacMARA is a Canadian charitable organization based in Victoria, British Columbia, of science and planning professionals dedicated to building and increasing capacity in marine and coastal planning in Canada and internationally.

The training focuses on :

  • Introduction to Systematic Conservation Planning (SCP)
  • Decision support tools for SCP
  • Elements of the ELSA process
  • Spatial data for mapping ELSAs
  • Interpreting and communicating results

We will be generating a Certificate of Completion for learners who:

  1. Watch all the videos entirely, AND
  2. Answer the quizzes in each session correctly
