About World Conservation
World Conservation examines conservation and sustainable development in the 21st century. It is a voice for IUCN’s Member organizations, Commissions, partners and friends: a place to air a wide variety of views and to stimulate debate.
Previously published twice a year, World Conservation, produced in print and online, has been read by a wide variety of people including key figures in conservation and sustainable development, in both government and non governmental sectors, business leaders and UN agencies.
We are now evolving the magazine into an online debate series called World Conservation Debates. Every quarter we will feature an article on a key conservation issue and open up to comments from our broad audience. We hope you will take part in the discussion - your opinion matters.
